The ‘Billiken Classic’ Tips November 25
(St. Louis, MO) – During this fast paced time of scheduling and rescheduling of basketball games, the ‘Billiken Classic’ seemingly came out of nowhere. Saint Louis University dropped out of the Nebraska-based multi-team event and created their own.
SLU will host Southern Illinois Edwardsville, LSU and St. Louis College of Pharmacy during the week of Thanksgiving. Similarly, SIUE has pulled out of a Youngstown, Ohio MTE to play closer to home.
Below is the schedule

Saint Louis vs. SIUE, TBA
Thursday, Nov. 26
SIUE vs. LSU, TBA
Saturday, Nov. 28
Saint Louis vs. LSU, TBA

Games will be played without fans. Game times, media coverage and credential information will be announced in the coming days.

I commented on @TVBOren's post about @CarsonSchwieger's signing with @ValpoBasketball, but this is a significant signing for @RogerPowellJr. The Schwieger's will complement each other well and with the other guys they have, this Beacons team will be players in the @ValleyHoops
It is @SaintLouisMBB for @Robbie_Avila30! Huge for the Billikens and first year coach @JoshSchertzSLU! Breaking from the @TheFieldOf68 guys on YouTube.
