Howard brothers break NCAA record, Golden Eagles outlast NDSU

It was another record-breaking night for senior guard Markus Howard. With 32 points in Marquette’s 82-68 victory over North Dakota State University, Howard and his brother Jordan became the NCAA’s top-scoring brother duo.

“When I think of where basketball has taken me, I think of my brothers. … He’s my biggest role model,” Markus said. “For our names to be in the record books for something that we’ve shared together is truly a blessing. Probably one of the biggest blessings I could ever receive in the game of basketball.”

Though Jordan may be thousands of miles away in Korea, Markus said he will be the first one t0 tell his brother.
