The Marquette Golden Eagles missed out on a chance to all-but-lock-up the Big East Conference title by losing 67-61 at Villanova Wednesday night. A clutch three-pointer with two-and-a-half minutes to go put the Wildcats ahead and they went on to break a three-game losing streak. Markus Howard led Marquette with 25 points, even though he missed some court time while he was in foul trouble. If the Eagles win their last three games, Villanova still can’t catch them. Next game for Marquette is Sunday against Creighton at the Fiserv Forum.
