CBS College Sports to Re-air Two SLU Men's Basketball Games From 2008-09
July 8, 2009
As part of its summer broadcasting schedule, CBS College Sports will rebroadcast two Saint Louis University men's basketball games from the 2008-09 season. The network is re-airing some of the best Atlantic 10 Conference games from the past season in summer programming called "Head of the Class." The Billikens' game at Dayton, played Jan. 29, 2009, will have an encore airing Friday, July 10, at 5 p.m. (CT). The Billikens and Flyers played a thriller at UD Arena, as Kwamain Mitchell's driving layup in the waning moments just rolled out, and Dayton held on for a 47-46 victory. Tom McCarthy and Greg Anthony called the game for CBS College Sports. The second SLU rebroadcast will be the home contest against Saint Joseph's, which was played Feb. 18, 2009. That game will re-air Saturday, July 11, at 5:30 p.m. (CT). Mitchell drilled a career-best five 3-pointers en route to 17 points, and SLU prevailed 73-71 despite 22 points and 11 rebounds by Hawks forward and second-round NBA draft pick Ahmad Nivins. The game was part of the "Billiken Blizzard" theme. McCarthy and Steve Lappas were the commentators for CBS College Sports.
