Billikens' Atlantic 10 home and away matchups revealed


ST. LOUIS -- The Atlantic 10 released the home-and-away men's basketball matchups for the 2015-16 season, so the Billikens now know where they will be playing conference opponents, but not when.
SLU's 18-game A-10 slate will feature home-and-home dates with five schools: Dayton, Duquesne, George Mason, St. Bonaventure and VCU.
The home schedule also includes tilts with reigning A-10 champion Davidson, Fordham, George Washington, and Richmond.
SLU will see La Salle, UMass, Rhode Island and Saint Joseph's once in 2016, and only on the road.
NUMBERS GAME
SLU Sports Information Director Brian Kunderman sent out a Tweet on Thursday with some updated numbers for several of the Billiken ballers.
A trio of freshmen got their digits, with Matt Neufeld grabbing 13, Elliott Welmer taking 33 and Jermaine Bishop selecting No. 11. Sophomore Miles Reynolds will switch from 11 to 2, which was worn last season by the now-departed Austin McBroom.
