Salukis seek road shooting lift at Creighton clash

SIU shooting only 43 percent overall and 35 percent on the road looks to improve with Rod Camp returning to start, while Creighton's lineup features Stovall Bates Bresnahan Moore and Pruitt off the bench. Two area stations will carry the game, WINI and WCIL.
