MILWAUKEE - It wasn't supposed to be easy but the Providence Friars finally can take home a win at Marquette.

PC won for the first time in 10 games at Marquette with a thrilling, last-second victory, 79-78.

PC held a 77-70 lead with 1:32 to play but tried to play give-away down the stretch. A four-point play by Andrew Rowsey (23 points) set up a frantic final minute. Rodney Bullock missed two free throws for PC with 20 seconds left and his team clinging to a one-point lead.

Marquette had two chances for the win but Bullock blocked a Katin Reinhardt shot with six seconds left and then heavily defended a final chance by Reinhardt at the buzzer.
