After defeating Southern Illinois University-Edwardsville in their season opener on Tuesday, Marquette once again found themselves in a tight matchup Friday night against New Hampshire.
For the second straight game, Marquette pulled out a win with timely shots down the stretch feating New Hampshire 75-70 at Fiserv Forum.
Despite shooting just 3-for-16 from beyond the arc in the first half, the Golden Eagles led by five going into halftime.
It was a sloppy first half, with both teams shooting below 35% from the field. In addition, Marquette had five turnovers compared to seven turnovers for New Hampshire.
