Tonight's matchup between LSU and Marquette features the league's hottest team (Marquette) against the team with the best record (LSU). It also features a contrast in styles between a star-driven offense (Marquette) and a team oriented approach (LSU).
Marquette, 9-4, enters the game with a six game winning streak. They have an average margin of victory of 4.4 points and have scored a total of 426 points in 13 games. Most of those points have been scored by one player. Indeed, Marquette's star player scored 56 of the 67 points that Marquette scored against LSU in the two head-to-head matchups.
LSU, 11-2, enters the game with a four game streak, but that is not our longest winning streak. Between the only two losses of the year, we won seven straight games. Our average margin of victory is 8.7 points and we have scored a total of 479 points in 13 games. LSU boasts two players who average scoring in double figures, and a third who has broken into double figures three times this year. Our current winning streak is the product of full participation by all ten players in both the offense and the defense. Everyone on the team is capable of scoring at any time. Everyone on the team has the confidence to take andmake a good shot.
Game time is 6:30 PM at the Bragg School. Please arrive by 6:10 for pre-game warmups.
