Men’s basketball holds intrasquad scrimmage in front of fans

An hour before Marquette men’s basketball’s preseason intrasquad scrimmage began, young fans dressed as Buzz Lightyear, Iggy the Golden Eagle, Superman, Wonder Woman and Harry Potter were roaming around the concourse of the Al McGuire Center. It was more than an open scrimmage as these fans were dressed in their Halloween costumes and took part in Halloween games and activities during the team’s Haunted Hoops event Oct. 31.

This was the second time spectators were allowed to see the team scrimmage in a span of three weeks. The roars and excitement of the upcoming basketball season, only a week away, spread throughout the few hundred in attendance during the hourlong scrimmage.
