CHICAGO (October 12, 2020) – A handful of former Loyola University Chicago men's basketball players are off to strong starts in their respective 2020-21 seasons overseas. Milton Doyle, Ben Richardson and Marques Townes have already opened their 2020-21 campaigns in Europe.
 
Doyle, who is playing for Allianz Pallacanestro Trieste in Italy, totaled 14 points, four rebounds, three assists and three steals in 27 minutes of play in a 74-72 victory over Sassari over the weekend. For the year, the 6-foot-4 guard, who was named to Loyola's All-Century Team in 2018, is contributing 14.5 points, 2.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 2.0 steals per outing.
 
Richardson, who just signed with Massagno Basket in Switzerland earlier this week, tallied nine points, one rebound and an assist in a 92-90 decision over Fribourg last night in his first action with his new team. 
 
Meanwhile, Townes registered six points in Universidad Catolica de Murcia's 74-72 win against Real Betis last week. The 6-foot-4 guard, who was the 2019 Missouri Valley Conference Player of the Year, is pitching in 1.6 ppg this year.
