Marquette erased a six-point halftime deficit, coming from behind to defeat DePaul 76-72 Saturday.
Markus Howard topped all scorers with 31 points after being knocked out of the Golden Eagles’ last game with a bloody nose.
Marquette (16-6, 6-4 Big East) did a lot of its second-half damage from the free-throw line where it hit 22-of-26.
The Eagles have won five of their last six Big East Conference games.
They have a week to rest up before returning to action Sunday at home against Butler.
