MONROE, La. – The ULM men's basketball program will look to bounce back against Loyola-Chicago when it returns to Fant-Ewing Coliseum for Whiteout Wednesday at 7:00 p.m. in game two of the College Basketball Invitational (CBI) best of three championship series.

Fans are encouraged to wear white for the second straight week. Last week, ULM (24-13) used its home-court advantage to defeat Vermont, 71-65 in the CBI Semifinals.

Loyola-Chicago (23-13) took game one of the CBI Championship series, 65-58 after a hot shooting night. The Ramblers became the first team to shoot over 50 percent from the field against the Warhawks this season as it shot .509 (27-53) in the contest.

Senior Tylor Ongwae scores a team-high 14.4 points per game on the season and also grabs 6.7 rebounds per outing. He posted a double-double with 12 points and 11 rebounds in game one on Monday. Ongwae is averaging 21.8 points per game in the CBI.

Ongwae is just 29 points shy of becoming the 36th 1,000 point scorer in school history. He would be the seventh player to do it in just two seasons.

Junior Jamaal Samuel notched a team-high 15 points on Monday including a trio of three-pointers. Juniors Justin Roberson and Majok Deng also reached double-figures with 11 and 10 points, respectively. Deng grabs a team-high 7.5 rebounds per game on the season.

The Warhawks need a win in order to extend the series to a third and deciding game on Friday. The game would be played at 7:00 p.m. at Fant-Ewing Coliseum if necessary. ULM is 14-3 at home this season and 404-172 (.701) all-time in Fant-Ewing Coliseum.
