By the end, Sunday evening’s 94-66 victory for Golden Eagles was a blowout. It took about 15 minutes for the Marquette alumni team to get going, and they even trailed at the end of the first quarter. It was all MU guys in the second half, though, as they tamped down on the shooting of #16 seed B1 Ballers and forced seven more turnovers on top of the 10 from the first half to cruise to the 28 point win punctuated by Dwight Buycks’ Elam Ending layup.
