Men’s basketball crushed at Marquette

MILWAUKEE — The Blue Demons traveled to Milwaukee for a 1 p.m. matinee game to square off against the conference rival Marquette Golden Eagles. While the Eagles have not made the tournament since 2013, they are a dangerous young team on the rise.

DePaul learned this quickly as they fell 83-58 to the Golden Eagles on Saturday.

The Golden Eagles are most dangerous from beyond the three-point arch; coming into Saturday’s game with the best 3-point field goal percentage in Big East play and the 11th best 3-point percentage in the NCAA. Through the Golden Eagles first four games, the team shot an outlandish 69 percent from three.
