The most famous member of Loyola-Chicago’s squad, Sister Jean Dolores-Schmidt said her traditional pregame prayer for the Ramblers Thursday before they tipped off for their first Sweet 16 appearance in over three decades.
Sister Jean, Loyola’s 98-year-old team chaplain who’s been with the Ramblers basketball team since 1994, prayed for the team like she’s done before every game this season.
"Stay focused,” Dolores-Schmidt said. “Use your heads and your hearts."
