The Creighton men’s basketball team will likely fall out of the top 25 next week after Wednesday’s loss to Providence at home 68-66 in front of over 17,000 fans at CenturyLink Center Omaha.
After going into half with a seven point lead, Providence came out right away in the second half and erased that lead and hung around through the rest of the game. Kyron Cartwright hit a three-pointer to give Providence the lead with 2.4 seconds left. The Bluejays last effort was just off as Khyri Thomas missed a contested shot from right around the 3-point arc.
