The Ramblers of Loyola University Chicago broke a two-game losing streak Friday after besting conference opponent Evansville Purple Aces 61-56 at\u00a0 the Joseph J. Gentile Arena in Chicago.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll wins are good wins, and today we feel lucky to have escaped with one,\u201d said Head Coach Kate Achter at a post-game press conference.<\/p>\n

Junior guard Tiara Wallace and sophomore forward Alexis Meyer led the Ramblers\u2019 scoring with 14 and 13 total points, respectively.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt wasn\u2019t the prettiest win, obviously, but a win\u2019s a win,\u201d Wallace said.<\/p>\n
