As the Big East tournament quarterfinal between Marquette and DePaul Blue Demons got started on Saturday afternoon, you could have jokingly said “hey, first to 100 wins, huh?”
You would have been right.
Your final from Mohegan Sun Arena: #5 seed Marquette 105, #4 seed DePaul 85! The Golden Eagles advance to the semifinals of the conference tournament for the sixth consecutive season, while the Blue Demons will have to hope that they’ve done enough for the NCAA tournament committee to let them in.
The two teams both missed their first shots of the game.
