Relief Role Suits Tate Hall
(St. Louis, MO) – Loyola’s Tate Hall went from the starting lineup to a relief role and became the Missouri Valley Conference’s ‘Player of the Week‘ and newcomers are racking up awards at Bradley.
Player of the Week
Hall had started every game of his Rambler career, until this weekend. Coach Porter Moser realized he had seven starters and decided to tinker with his rotation. Hall went to the relief role with splendid results. He scored a season-high 24 points during LUC’s Saturday win over Northern Iowa. The 6’6 senior added 13 points in Sunday’s win.
Moser said the lefty took the news of his adjusted role perfectly.
The Ramblers (10-3, 5-1) travel to Valparaiso (3-8, 0-2) on Wednesday.
Newcomer
Terry Nolan Junior has started every one of his Bradley Brave games. The 6’4 George Washington transfer is BU’s second leading scorer and this week’s ‘Newcomer of the Week‘. Nolan Junior sparked the defending Arch Madness champions to a pair of wins while averaging 14.5 points per game.
Teammate Rienk Mast won the award last week.
Bradley (9-4, 3-1) travels to Illinois State (4-8, 1-5) for Wednesday’s ‘War on 74’ rivalry game.
