Saint Louis Vs. La Salle Halftime Score: Billikens Take 35-29 Lead Into The Break

The St. Louis Billikens are not only trying to capture an Atlantic-10 Tournament title this weekend, they're also trying to solidify (or guarantee) a bid to the NCAA Tournament. The Billikens are by most accounts solidly in the field as of Friday morning, but it certainly won't hurt to keep winning.

And so far so good in their quarterfinal round game against La Salle -- the Billikens are up 35-29 at halftime.
