* LOYOLA MARYMOUNT (4-10, 0-2) at SAN FRANCISCO (10-4, 1-1), 7, KXLU-FM (88.9 Westchester)--The Lions are coming off home losses in their first two West Coast Conference games. Friday’s 93-62 drubbing by Gonzaga wasn’t unexpected, but the 67-65 loss to Portland on Saturday really hurt. The Lions’ biggest fears were realized when it was determined this week that point guard Haywood Eaddy will be out two to six weeks because of a broken little finger on his shooting hand. Eaddy was injured in the first half against Portland. Willie Allen will take his place at the point. Besides being the emotional leader, Eaddy leads the team in scoring with a 16.1-point average, in assists with 4.8 a game, and steals with two a game. USF’s all-conference guard, M.J. Nodilo, has returned after missing the first 12 games of the season because of a stress fracture. However, Damian Cantrell, the conference leader in rebounding with a 9.8 average, is sidelined indefinitely because of mononucleosis.
