FLOOR SLAPS: Freshmen, Froling play key roles in Marquette win over DePaul

In a thoroughly dominating performance from Marquette (13-6, 4-3 in the BIG EAST) cruised to a victory over DePaul (8-10, 1-5) to get back over .500 in the BIG EAST.

DEPAUL MISSED EVERYTHING

You know it’s bad when a team shoots 41.2 percent in the second half and it’s considered a massive improvement.

Marquette’s stingy defense can be credited for a large portion of DePaul’s 29.9 field goal percentage in a 70-52 victory for the Golden Eagles. Not everything was perfect – allowing 17 offensive rebounds on 47 Blue Demons misses is nobody’s idea of great defensive box outs – but the Golden Eagles were more than satisfactory to stifle DePaul’s limp attack.
