Loyola-Chicago Slips Past Nevada in Atlanta

Loyola-Chicago has advanced to the Elite 8 with a 69-68 victory over Nevada.

In the closing seconds, Loyola held a one-point lead and Nevada inexplicably opted to not foul despite only a 5-second differential between game clock and shot clock.

Loyola then drained a 3-pointer to seal the win.



Loyola-Chicago will await the winner of tonight’s game between Kentucky and Kansas State in the national quarterfinals.
