Loyola has big dreams for this postseason. Rambler seniors Cameron Krutwig and Lucas Williamson were serious freshmen contributors during their 2018 run to the Final Four, and now want to create their own memories in their potential final season.
The No. 21 Ramblers (21-4, 16-2) are the regular-season champions and the top seed for this year’s edition of Arch Madness. While the Missouri Valley has enjoyed having two ranked teams (Drake is the other) and three teams in the NET’s top 100, the league members will arrive in St. Louis a little banged up.
