On a day honoring Marquette’s and the BIG EAST’s all-time leading scorer — Markus Howard — another All-American candidate stole the show. Or at least his team stole the game.
Seton Hall senior guard Myles Powell scored 28 points and dished five assists in the No. 13 Pirates’ 88-79 win Saturday at Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee.
“If Seton Hall plays like that, everybody watch out,” Marquette coach Steve Wojciechowski said. “They were terrific, and they had answers for everything we did. … I’m not sure if there’s anybody in the country that would’ve beat them today.”
It’s Powell’s fourth consecutive 20-plus point performance against the Golden Eagles.
