Floor slaps: MUBB loses in BIG EAST quarterfinal

Not the game plan

When the BIG EAST Quarterfinal matchup between Marquette and Seton Hall kicked off the Golden Eagles looked like the sharpshooting, ball-moving offense they had been for most of the season. However, when the shots stopped falling, the ball started sticking. Despite assisting on six baskets early, Marquette finished with exactly as many assists as a team as Pirate center Angel Delgado had: nine.

“When the shots aren’t falling some guys, we feel the need to bet that person to bring it back and get us rolling on offense,” Markus Howard said.
