BOSTON (AP) — Kyle Foreman had 12 points, Justin Alston scored 11 and grabbed seven rebounds, and second-seeded Boston University held seventh seed Loyola (Md) to 36 percent shooting from the floor to win Thursday night's Patriot League quarterfinal 64-60.
The Terriers (18-13) advance to Sunday's semifinals to face No. 3 Lehigh, which beat No. 6 Colgate 77-72 on Thursday.
Andre Walker's free throw with 1:25 left drew Loyola to 60-58, but Alston hit a jumper for a 62-58 lead. Walker's layup made it a two-point game with 50 seconds left.
