Marquette Strengthens Schedule With Home-And-Home Against Kansas State

The Marquette Golden Eagles will play Kansas State next season, meeting the Wildcats for the first time in 30 years.  Milwaukee native Bruce Weber coaches a K-S-U squad expected to be an N-C-A-A tournament team after reaching the Elite Eight last March.  Eagles coach Steve Wojchiechowski says his team’s non-conference schedule is shaping up to be the most-challenging one since he’s been at Marquette.  The K-State meeting is a home-and-home, with the Wildcats playing at the new Wisconsin Sports and Entertainment Center December 1st.  Marquette travels to Kansas next season.  The Golden Eagles are also signed up for the Pre-season N-I-T in November.
