Markus Howard was one of three Marquette players to score in double figures against American.
Marquette lived and died by the 3-point shot throughout its non-conference slate, attempting 29 3-pointers per game entering play Thursday.
Its non-conference finale was no different, as 14 3-pointers fueled a 92-51 win over American Thursday night.
BALL MOVEMENT ALLOWS HAUSER TO SHINE
Sam Hauser scored a seemingly insurmountable 30 points earlier in the year against Eastern Illinois.
Hauser flirted with that record Thursday, scoring 29 points on a career-best seven 3-pointers. Hauser has now scored at least 15 points in six of Marquette’s last eight contests.
