After eating a shocking loss to Georgetown earlier this week, Creighton was tasked with facing Marquette. The Bluejays traveled up north to face the Golden Eagles in Wisconsin, and left the state with a 71-68 win.
The win didn’t come easy for Creighton, as they found themselves trailing 31-25 late in the first half. However, the Bluejays would then go on a tear, finishing the game on a 46-37 run. They held the home team to just 11 points in the first 10 minutes of the second half. And while hte Golden Eagles made a significant rally, that pursuit wound up being fruitless and the effort became futile.
