The hugs were aplenty for Brad Loos on Saturday night, as were the smiles that beamed throughout Mizzou Arena.
For the second straight year, the Tigers emerged victorious in the Rally For Rhyan game. The 83-78 win against Arkansas ended a 13-game losing skid for Mizzou, and it was fueled in large part by the support for Loos’ 6-year-old daughter, Rhyan.
The rally to help fight pediatric cancer helped raise $54,000 on Saturday, the school announced.
“I don’t think it’s a coincidence (our two best games in the last two years have come on Rally For Rhyan nights),” Brad Loos said postgame.
