Win or lose, Loyola’s school spirit is steady.
Loyola University Chicago’s men’s basketball team (1-7) lost 69-58 to the DePaul Demons (5-3) in the, “Redline Rivalry,” Wednesday evening. The Rambler’s struggled in the beginning to find their footing but made a stunning comeback in the fourth quarter.
Despite the loss, Loyola students still support their Ramblers whole heartedly.
“They may not have the best record but they have the work ethic. They come everyday ready to play. Ya know what? Next year, 50 years from now, we’re gonna repeat, championship baby,” said Mike Mackowski, 20, junior accounting major.
Mackowski also cited his favorite player on the team No. 33 Walker Gibler who he considers to be best center in the league. Gilber made Mackowski proud during the game by scoring 29 points, a new career record.
Other Loyola Students will support the men’s basketball team through thick and thin.
“They have the potential to be a really good team and I know it’s going to happen one day,” said Harley Griffths, 20, junior advertising/public relations major, “I have faith it’s gonna be a good season this year once they pick it up and play some conference games.”
The Ramblers travel to Toledo this coming Saturday, December 10, for their next game.
