In the battle of the Big East superstars, Myles Powell came out with the upper hand in more ways than one. He finished with 34 points as compared to Markus Howard’s six points, but the biggest number on the scoreboard was the final score, not the individual statistics, as Seton Hall came away with a 74-63 victory over No. 16 Marquette.
The Golden Eagles kept their distance from the Pirates all game, but ultimately, an 18-0 run to close out the game by Kevin Willard’s team secured the victory.
“We knew what was on the line,” Powell said.
