There was not much Marquette (1-1) could do to stop Purdue Boilermakers (2-0) big man Isaac Haas. The 7-foot-2 senior stole the show in No.19 Purdue’s victory over Marquette 86-71 in the Gavitt Tipoff Games.
“We thought it was a pick-your-poison game,” Marquette head coach Steve Wojciechowski said of Purdue.
It was a balanced scoring effort up and down the roster from veteran-laden Purdue that did the Golden Eagles in. Sophomore Carsen Edwards had 15 points, seniors Vincent Edwards and Dakota Mathis both had 10 and junior Grady Eifert had eight. However, it was big man Isaac Haas who did the most damage.
