 ===== Season Recap ===== ===== Season Recap =====
-This was Coach Kevin O'Neill's first season with the Marquette Warriors.  MU went 15-14 and was invited to play in the NITwhere they lost in the first round.+A sign in the student section at [[the Bradley Center]] on Senior Night summed up the thoughts of many in looking back at the 1989-90 Warrior Basketball season..."**Kevin O. and Tony S.- Thank You For Bringing Back the Warriors.**  First year head coach [[Kevin O'Neill]] and senior Tony Smith led Marquette to its first winning season and post-season appearance since 1986-87.  The 15-14 overall record and 9-5 MCC mark (third place) are signs of success to come for the tradition-rich MU basketball program.\\ 
 + 
 +Smith set new MU scoring records for a season with his 23.8 averaged and his career point total of 1,688 placed him third on the all-time Warrior scoring chart.  The LA Laker second-round draft pick was phenomenal throughout the year, leading the Warriors in nine offensive categories and ranking among the NCAA leaders in scoring and free throw percentage all season.\\ 
 + 
 +"What Tony and Ty ([[Tyrone Baldwin]]) and all the players did for our program last year, I'll never forget it.  They really gave us a great effort and helped us in a lot of ways.  The entire team gave an unbelievable effort all year long," Coach O'Neill said of his 1989-90 Warriors.\\ 
 + 
 +Marquette's first season in the [[Midwestern Collegiate Conference]] was a memorable one, following 72 years as an independent.  MU's 9-5 MCC league mark landed them in third place overall, competing with league favorites [[Xavier]] and [[Dayton]] for the MCC regular season crown.\\ 
 + 
 +The 1989-90 season will also be remembered for the "twin victories" of MU rivals [[DePaul]] and [[Notre Dame]].  It was the first time since 1982 that MU beat both the Blue Demons and Fighting Irish in the same season.  [[Trevor Powell]]totalling 25 points and nine rebounds playing on a badly sprained ankle, keyed the 80-68 win over ND (MU's firsst win over the Irish since 1982).  Tony Smith's 34 points led the Warriors in their 77-55 victory over DePaul in January, before a season-high crowd of 16,671 fans at the [[Bradley Center]].\\ 
 + 
 +The 1990 NIT post-season bid capped the year and MU's narrow loss at [[Penn State]] (eventual NIT semi-finalist) in the opening round ended the 1989-90 Warrior campaign.  At his post-game press conference, Coach O'Neill talked about his first MU team and the 1989-90 year. "This isn't the end of the season.  In my mind it's the start of getting back the winning tradition we all expect at Marquettte University."
