Howard, Johnson steal the show for MU
It was freshman phenom Markus Howard who stole the show for Marquette in the BIG EAST conference opener, as the Arizona native led Marquette with a career-high 23 points on their way to a 76-66 victory over Georgetown. Howard was 7 of 10 for the night including five 3-pointers and was perfect from the charity stripe adding four points. From the opening tip, Howard came out on fire, as he hit four of his five 3-pointers in the first half.
