No. 10 Marquette claims share of Big East regular season title with win over DePaul

In the 44-year history of the Big East conference, no one has done what No. 10 Marquette did Saturday night at Fiserv Forum.

The Golden Eagles (23-6, 15-3 Big East), who were picked to finish ninth in the preseason coaches’ poll, claimed their first share of the Big East regular season title since 2012-13 by defeating DePaul (9-19, 3-15) 90-84.

“Coach came out of the locker room like ‘Don’t take for granted we won. We (know) we play better than that. But we clinched a share of the Big East, that’s not what we want to do but that’s just the fact of the matter right now,” Kam Jones said.
