A back and forth game in Omaha between Marquette and Creighton finished in dramatic fashion.
The Golden Eagles fell behind 85-80 with 8 seconds left, but a bucket from Joseph Chartouny and a Creighton turnover set up Sam Hauser for some late game heroics.

Hauser would be the story of the game if it wasn’t for another stellar performance from Markus Howard. Howard finished with 53 points, including 14 coming in overtime.
Are you kidding?!
