What you need to know about Saint Louis

The Billikens had enough points to win and then some against the La Salle Explorers on Tuesday, taking their game 75-57. Saint Louis' success was spearheaded by the efforts of forward Francis Okoro, who had 19 points along with seven boards, and guard Fred Thatch Jr., who dropped a double-double with 14 points and 10 rebounds.

Saint Louis outrebounded La Salle 43-31 in the victory and has now won the battle on the boards in every game but one during a current six-game winning streak. So expect Okoro, an Oregon transfer, to play a big role on Friday against an experienced but small St. Bonaventure lineup.
