With 35 seconds remaining against Wisconsin two weeks ago, redshirt junior Ed Morrow made possibly the play of the year, leaping to reject an otherwise-easy floater attempt from Wisconsin star center Ethan Happ to send the game into overtime.
“I like to find the ball,” Morrow said regarding his shot-blocking. “If I have the opportunity to block a shot, I’m going to contest it.”
Marquette is making more plays like Morrow’s following two subpar seasons on the defensive end, helping Marquette earn a national ranking in the Associated Press Poll in consecutive weeks for the first time since 2003.
