Billikens Blow the 18-Game Streak, Upset at Rhode Island 81-76 | Billikens Central Postgame

The Billikens’ 18-game win streak came to a crashing halt Tuesday night as SLU fell to Rhode Island, 81–76, in a frustrating road loss From the opening tip, it was a sloppy night for the Billikens. Turnovers piled up early — 18 total on the night — and Rhode Island made them pay, especially from deep. Jonah Hinton caught fire, knocking down nine three-pointers and scoring 29 points to swing the game in the Rams’ favor SLU struggled to finish at the rim, shooting just 14-of-30 on layups, and couldn’t consistently generate clean looks in the half court. Despite a late push and tightening up defensively down the stretch, the Billikens never fully recovered from their rough first half and poor decision-making in key moments Learn more about your ad choices.
