Providence Sweeps DePaul, 76-73

“Just. Keep. Winning.”

That’s the mantra right now for Ed Cooley and the Providence Friars, who just notched their 21st win of the season, and 11th in BIG EAST play, beating the DePaul Blue Demons last night in an overtime thriller. And, my goodness, was that definitely a thriller.

Last night’s contest saw the Friars trail by as many as 13-points to the Blue Demons, the residential basement dwellers of the conference. Yes, you read that correctly, THIRTEEN points was DePaul’s lead on the Friars – in front of a sold-out Dunkin’ Donuts Center crowd, mind you.
