- | ===== Preview | + | ===== Crisp Passing Helps Golden Eagles Beat Norfolk State ===== |
+ | |||
+ | {{ : | ||
+ | |||
+ | Golden Eagles coach [[Buzz Williams]] really liked those 26 assists his team passed for in its 99-68 victory over [[Norfolk State]]. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Marquette' | ||
+ | |||
+ | Marquette led from beginning to end, and perimeter players [[Darius Johnson-Odom]] and [[Vander Blue]] led Marquette with six assists each. | ||
+ | |||
+ | " | ||
+ | |||
+ | "So there' | ||
+ | |||
+ | [[Jae Crowder]] made 10 of 15 shots and led Marquette with 25 points, 10 rebounds and four assists, while Johnson-Odom added 24 points. Blue scored 14 points, [[Todd Mayo]] had 12 and point guard [[Junior Cadougan]] passed for four assists. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Marquette got inside right from the opening tip as it scored the first six points from the paint on its way to a 40-29 halftime lead and a 24-6 scoring edge in the paint. Crowder scored three straight times on layups to give the Golden Eagles a 63-40 lead with 13 minutes 8 seconds left. | ||
+ | |||
+ | [[Norfolk State]]' | ||
+ | |||
+ | Crowder said the Golden Eagles suspected they might have an advantage inside. | ||
+ | |||
+ | " | ||
+ | |||
+ | [[Norfolk State]] (0-1) did make a run in the second half as it outscored Marquette, 15-3, to cut the lead to 74-62 before the Golden Eagles ran off 19 straight to go ahead by 31 with 2:37 left. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Williams' | ||
+ | |||
+ | "It got ragged," | ||
+ | |||
+ | "It got ragged and I should have called a timeout when I sensed it was getting ragged. When we're out of sync on either end of the floor it typically leads to, whatever end we're on, the other is about to get out of sync, too. I know that. That's how we play . . . so I'll attribute most of that raggedness on me as much as I do our guys." | ||
+ | |||
+ | But the Golden Eagles finished strong as Johnson-Odom sank a three and scored on a fast-break dunk during their 19-0 run and Mayo hit a pair of threes. | ||
+ | |||
+ | "Buzz wasn't real happy with our performance up to that point," | ||
