“The last time we were in Chicago, we stayed at the same hotel we were at,” Kolek said. “We played Missouri in a closed scrimmage before the season, I think he had 28, the same way. When he is locked in on the defensive end it all translates to offense and that’s when he is at his best.”Marquette pulled away in the second half. Oso Ighodaro’s basket started an 11-0 run and Joplin followed with three consecutive 3s to extend the lead to 50-38 with 14:30 left.

He’s just a great player.”Marquette leading scorer Kam Jones appeared to injure his right hip during the game. He was checked on by a team trainer and returned but was grimacing on the court.
