Xavier faces Marquette for shot at first Big East Tournament title | Live updates

NEW YORK – Xavier's men's basketball team has the chance to win a Big East Conference Tournament championship on Saturday night at Madison Square Garden against Marquette at 6:30 p.m.

The Musketeers haven't won a conference tournament title since 2006 when Sean Miller was at Xavier the first time, and the Musketeers were still in the Atlantic-10 Conference.

Xavier's coming off its best game of the season, a 22-point drubbing of Creighton on Friday night at the Garden.

The two regular-season meetings between Xavier (25-8) and Marquette (27-6) were decided by a combined five points and both were decided in the final minute.
