Playing down one star, and another limited by injury, the Kansas State Wildcats still played strong in front of a raucous home crowd, but it wasn’t quite enough as the Cats fall to the Marquette Golden Eagles 64-63 on Wednesday night in Bramlage Coliseum. With the loss, the Wildcats fall the 5-3 on the season, while the Golden Eagles improve to 8-2.
Things actually started out mostly well for the Wildcats, as K-State jumped out of the gate early with good defensive pressure and a 5-0 lead at just over two minutes into the game.
