Title: [Cracked Sidewalks] Marquette tops Utah Valley State
Post by: CrackedSidewalksSays on November 12, 2007, 09:15:26 PM
Marquette tops Utah Valley State

After trailing at the half 34-32, Marquette turned up the defensive pressure and pulled away from Utah Valley State for a 66-55 win tonight at the Bradley Center.

With the win, the Golden Eagles improved to 2-0 on the season. Utah Valley State fell to 0-2.

Marquette's win was keyed by a surprising performance from junior big man Dwight Burke who exploded for 12 points and eight rebounds -- easily the best game of his collegiate career. Dominic James led MU with 13 points followed by David Cubillan with a dozen and Lazar Hayward with 11. Hampered by foul trouble, Jerel McNeal was held to just 7 points, though he hauled in eight boards.

Next up for Marquette......a trip to Maui and a game against the Chaminade Silver Swords.
