Oso planning to go pro
Marquette v. Seton Hall on FS1! A pleasant Sunday morning surprise.
Marquette made a nice run in the 2nd quarter after going down by about 8. McLaughlin is having a nice game. Still more turnovers than I'd like with 9 first half TO's for MU. Hopefully they can have a good second half.
7-0 run to tie and then gave up an 8-0 run 16-0 run. Getting hurt on the offensive boards, no patience on offense or legit second option.
I guess the national TV jinx transcends sports.
Marquette's first game after the Christmas holiday is at UCONN on Wed. 12/29.
Looks like it has been postponed.
How is Karisa’s ankle?
Fun game tonight at the Al that at first appeared MU had won on a tip-in by LVK with less than a second to go. But that was waved off after a long review. Marquette took care of business in OT prevailing 88-85 over rival DePaul. Karissa McLaughlin had the big stat line with 24 pts, 4 reb, 3 ast, 2 TO, 2 stl playing all 45 minutes of the game. I was really impressed with sophomore Danyel Middleton tonight - she had a nice game including two 3 pointers and 10 rebounds.MU has two more home games coming up this weekend - Fri vs. Georgetown and Sun vs. Villanova
How was the attendance?
It was interesting to watch the video of the tip-in at the end of regulation - it appears to be good based on the light on the backboard but they ruled the clock didn't start on time:https://twitter.com/_robanderson/status/1481462705357737985
I think the refs got it right, but that had to be brutal for the players and coaches in the moment. Big kudos to them for being able to win in OT; some teams might have been too deflated.Always nice to beat DePaul. It's not realistic for Marquette to be UConn in women's hoops, but DePaul's year-in, year-out consistently good showing is something for Marquette to aspire to.
