Column: Loyola holds off DePaul 68-64 in the renewal of a city rivalry that lives up to the hype. ‘Just a big-time college basketball atmosphere.’

“Why not?” said former DePaul forward Tom Kleinschmidt, who is coach at DePaul Prep. “The ‘L’ series, I don’t know why (it stopped). It would great to see them play every year, home-and-home. The atmosphere is great here. This is the best it’s been in a while — loud, exciting, and it’s a great place to play. If we keep getting wins, it’ll be fun.”
