A day after former Loyola men’s basketball center Cameron Krutwig announced he would be waiving his NCAA eligibility to declare for the NBA draft, the team released a one-minute video announcing the return of the rest of the team’s seniors.
Senior guards Lucas Williamson and Keith Clemons, redshirt senior guard Tate Hall and redshirt senior forward Aher Uguak will be returning to the team, meaning four of the five “starting seven” who were set to graduate will be returning.
While these players were seniors this year, the NCAA expanded eligibility for student-athletes due to the COVID-19 pandemic, allowing them to come back and play for an extra year.
