 [[Al McGuire]] imprinted his personality on the Marquette basketball team in 1967-68, and the results were impressive. The Warriors, heady, scrapping, and shining with desire like their coach, fought to a 23-6 record and a third place finish in the National Collegiate Athletic Association Mideast Regional in Lexington, Kentucky.
-The number of wins was exceeded only once in Marquette history and, coupled with last season's 21-9 record, gave the school its first back to back 20-win seasons in history. In the process, the Warriors broke a season record for field goal percentage and a single game record in the same category.

In the process, the Warriors broke a season record for field goal percentage and a single game record in the same category.  They were also 12th in the nation in scoring defense, allowing opponents 64.7 points per game.
 Junior forward [[George Thompson]], rapidly becoming the greatest player in Marquette history, smashed five individual records and tied another. The records: most points in one season - 664; best scoring average in one season - 22.8; most field goals in one season - 252; most free throws in one season - 160; and most points in two Varsity seasons - 1,187. Thompson's 16 field goals against Xavier at Cincinnati tied the record held by three other players.
