DePaul men’s basketball keeps coming close.
They came close against Villanova to open the conference schedule, they came close against Butler in a one-point overtime loss, and they came close against Georgetown this past Tuesday in a three-point loss.
On Saturday against Marquette (15-8, 6-5 Big East), the score wasn’t as close but DePaul (8-15, 1-9) stayed in the game in their 92-79 loss to the Golden Eagles
“I don’t know that I felt comfortable at any point in the game because part of strategy to play them is they can be lethal offensively,” head coach Dave Leitao said.
