DePaul upsets Xavier in Cincinnati

The DePaul Blue Demons scored a major upset win on Saturday afternoon.

The Blue Demons caught the now 16-6 Xavier Musketeers napping as they edged them, 69-65. The win is just DePaul’s second in Big East play this season and snaps a four-game losing streak that started with Xavier, followed by Creighton, Villanova, and UConn in that descending order. It also is the first time since the previous Xavier matchup in which they scored more than 60 points, after putting up 47, 43, and 50 in their previous three losses.
