Siena went on a mini-run at the end of the half, but Edwin Ubilies missed two big free throws and the Saints turned it over with 10 seconds left and a chance to cut the lead to single digits. 

The Saints shot 35.7 percent in the first half; Hounds shot 46.7 percent. 

Omari Israel and Mike Tuck have combined for 21 points and 13 rebounds. 

So far, the Saints have had no answer for Loyola's low-post dominance.
