SID: Luke LeNoble lucas.lenoble@mu.edu Work Phone: Cell Phone: Website: GoMarquette.com Fax: Blue Responds To Buzz s Rebounding Challenge After averaging just 2.2 rebounds per game through the team s first five outings, head coach Buzz Williams challenged sophomore guard Vander Blue to become more involved on the boards at both ends of the court. The Madison, Wis., native has responded in the team s last four games, contributing 6.8 rebounds per night to lead the squad during that span. He opened his recent run by matching a personal best with nine caroms in the win over Jacksonville and has collected at least seven boards in three of the last four games. Blue s focus on rebounding hasn t impacted the rest of his all around game. Since the Nov. 28 win over the Dolphins, he is chipping in 9.3 points, 6.8 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 2.3 steals per contest.

Gardner Steps Into Starting Role For The First Time With injuries to junior Chris Otule and sophomore Jamil Wilson, sophomore forward Davante Gardner was inserted into the starting lineup for the first time in his career in the win over Green Bay. The Suffolk, Va., native finished the night with 14 points, seven rebounds and four steals in 30 minutes of action (previous personal high was 18 minutes). He shot 6 of 11 from the field and amazingly six of his boards came at the offensive end. Gardner now owns one starting assignment in 42 appearances and owns career averages of 5.1 points and 2.5 rebounds per game. Otule Suffers ACL Injury; Anderson Out With Bad Shoulder Junior Center Chris Otule has suffered an injury to the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee. Otule injured the knee while tracking down a loose ball in the opening minutes of the team s Dec. 6 victory over Washington in the Jimmy V Classic. Otule and the Marquette medical staff will evaluate the best course of action in the coming days, which will determine the amount of time he will miss. Freshman forward Juan Anderson suffered an injury to his right shoulder during practice on Dec. 8 and is expected to miss 3 4 weeks. The Oakland, Calif., native had appeared in four games off the bench for MU and netted his first career basket at Wisconsin. Crowder s Trey Allows MU To Rally For Win Senior forward Jae Crowder s 3 pointer with less than seven seconds left in regulation allowed the Golden Eagles to escape with a victory over Washington Dec. 6 in the Jimmy V Classic. The Villa Rica, Ga., native who was held to just two points in the win at Wisconsin, netted 16 of his 18 points against the Huskies in the second half. He finished the night 8 of 15 from the field and the lone trey he made all game proved to be the game winner. Crowder s shot was his first contest deciding basket at Marquette, but he did have one against Midland Junior College while attending Howard College. Depth Providing Much-Needed Options For Coaching Staff Head coach Buzz Williams and his staff have assembled the deepest roster during his tenure and the fourth year head coach is utilizing all of his options. The contributions of each player on the roster became even more important following the injuries suffered by center Chris Otule and forward Juan Anderson. Of the nine active players currently on the roster, not including Otule and Anderson, all are averaging at least 11.0 minutes per game and six are chipping in at least 6.8 points per contest. Through the first nine games, Marquette s reserves are contributing 23.9 points and 16.8 rebounds per outing while shooting 47.2 percent from the floor and 72.1 percent from the charity stripe.

Marquette shot just 38.3 percent from the floor, including 18.2 percent from behind the 3 point line, and turned the ball over 13 times while collecting just seven assists. MU was also in foul trouble the entire evening and playing without starting point guard Junior Cadougan. Senior Jae Crowder was also limited to just two points on four shot attempts. MU s defensive effort, which allowed the Badgers to shoot just 32.0 percent from the floor for the game, was the key to victory. Marquette held UW to just 26.1 percent from the floor in the opening half and collected 10 straight stops down the stretch to help secure the win.

Wilson Free Throw Line Continues To Provide Advantage The ability to consistently get to the free throw line, as well as convert on those opportunities, has been a focus since fourth year head coach Buzz Williams took over. The focus has been evident early in , where once again the Golden Eagles have made more free throws (166) than their opponents have attempted (133). As a result, MU is outscoring opponents by an average of 10 points per game ( ) from the line. The victory over Ole Miss provided a perfect example. MU finished 33 of 43 from the line and the Rebels were just 13 of 21 from the charity stripe. Since the start of the season, Marquette is 1,968 of 2,740 (71.8 percent) from the free throw line and opponents are 1,266 of 1,893 (66.9 percent).

He has played a total of 126 minutes (14.0 minutes per night) and taken a total of just four shots. Wilson also owns 12 assists and four steals in his limited action. He made his first career start at rival Wisconsin and collected a pair of rebounds in 20 minutes. His defense on UW s Jordan Taylor played a key role in the MU victory. MU Collects Program First With Potent Attack Marquette s 59 points in the championship game of the Paradise Jam win over Norfolk State not only marked the lowest total for the team through five games in , it was the first time the squad failed to score at least 90 points. The Golden Eagles entered the title outing having reached the 90 point plateau in each of the first four games, marking the first occasion in program history MU had posted four consecutive games with over 90 points on the scoreboard. In its 95 year history, MU has posted three straight games of at least 90 points on several occasions, most recently to begin the campaign, the first season under head coach Buzz Williams.

Season Opener Provides Plethora Of Notes Marquette s season opening 54 point win over Mount. St. Mary s was significant for a number of reasons besides the final margin of victory. Several individual and team accomplishments of note were collected. The 54 point triumph over the Mountaineers is Marquette s largest margin of victory since MU s win (55 points) over Prairie View A&M on Dec. 6, Led by 14 points each by Jae Crowder and Chris Otule, six players scored in double figures for Marquette for the first time since last season s win over Green Bay (No. 17, 2010) at the Bradley Center. Each of the 10 players to see action for MU contributed at least one point and one rebound. The last time every player to see the court chipped in came Feb. 2, 2011 in a loss at Villanova. Marquette s 54 point margin of victory was the largest in a season opener since MU downed Milwaukee Teachers College (55 point margin) to begin the campaign. Marquette s 19 steals established a new single game team record at the Bradley Center, led by four steals apiece from Jae Crowder and Vander Blue. Marquette improves to (.842) in season openers with Friday s victory. MU has won 11 consecutive season openers and 12 of its last 13. Cadougan Doubles Up In Box Score Junior guard Junior Cadougan collected his second career double double in the season opener, finishing with 10 points and 10 assists in just 24 minutes as the team s starting point guard. The Toronto, Ontario, native shot 4 of 9 from the floor and also found time to grab two rebounds and create two steals.

Connecticut and Syracuse share the top spot with 209 points, followed by Louisville (201), Pittsburgh (188) and Cincinnati (169).

8 Page 8 Two words have served as the foundation for fourth-year head coach Buzz Williams program at Marquette University since he was officially hired on April 8, 2008 Character Revealed. Because of the values and work ethic contained within that philosophy, the Golden Eagles were able to add Sweet Sixteen in as another twoword extension to the squad s impressive list of accomplishments during his tenure. Williams has guided Marquette to three-straight NCAA Championship appearances (six overall), including the program s 14th participation in the regional semifinals last season. Continuing the University s proud tradition of success on the court, MU has remained a fixture in the national rankings, claimed wins over multiple nationally ranked teams and been extremely competitive in the BIG EAST Conference. The squad has also ramped up its community service efforts under Williams guidance and collected academic recognition since he assumed the reigns of the program prior to the campaign. Marquette claimed 22 victories in , including a road victory at eventual national champion Connecticut and a quarterfinal appearance in the league tourney, en route to being tabbed a No. 11 seed in the NCAA s.
