With the clock winding down in the most pressure-packed moment of the season, Marquette was able to rely on its two big men to get the job done. Just the way you’d draw it up.
After making the go-ahead layup with half a minute to go, Luke Fischer grabbed one final rebound off a missed free throw to seal a 57-55 victory for Marquette. The win is the Golden Eagles’ first against the Badgers under head coach Steve Wojciechowski.
Henry Ellenson led the team in scoring with 15 points and 11 rebounds, and was vital in the Golden Eagles’ final possessions.
