Did you miss a broadcast of a Saluki game this year. Click on the appropriate game to hear replays from the 1997-98 season. Tip-off at the SIU Arena is 2 p.m. Tech returns four of five starters from a 22-7 team a year ago which shared the Ohio Valley Conference title.
Tech is always a well-coached team that brings plenty of weapons to the floor.
We lost a tough game down there last season, and know what they are capable of doing. Hathaway started out strong this year as well, leading the Salukis with 20 points in the win over Gold Star. Melaniece Bardley , who scored 10 points in the loss to Tech last season, grabbed 16 rebounds for SIUC in the exhibition win. Terica and Melaniece obviously were the most impressive duo in the exhibition game, but we need some others to step it up to come away with a win in the opener. Beck also knows her team must improve on the defensive end against the Golden Eaglettes, who averaged almost 70 points per game last season, paced by Seng's 17.7 ppg and Amber Clark's 12.5 ppg.
