Playing their only exhibition game, the Billikens caught fire a little past the midway point of the first half. Kemezys corralled an offensive rebound and scored with 8:46 to play, giving SLU a 20-13 lead and triggering a 23-0 outburst that put the Bills up 41-13 at intermission.
Saint Louis opens the regular season next Friday, Nov. 13, when Southern Illinois comes to Chaifetz Arena for an 8 p.m. tip. The Billikens-Salukis clash is the second half of a doubleheader that begins with the nationally ranked SLU volleyball team taking on Rhode Island at 6 p.m.
A ticket purchased for either the basketball game or the volleyball match is good for admittance to both events.
