-^Round^ Opponent^ Score^
+The Warriors finished at 18 wins and 9 losses, breaking their string of 13 consecutive 20-victory seasons.  But the 18 wins were good enough to secure their tenth consecutive NCAA bid.  However, they lost to Villanova in the first round, 77-59.

+The Warriors started captain [[Robert Byrd]], [[Oliver Lee]], [[Michael Wilson]], [[Sam Worthen]] and [[Terrell Schlundt]], the lone recruit.  The supporting cast featured [[Artie Green]], [[Tony Davis]], [[Larry Hatchett]], [[Dean Marquardt]] and [[Greg Shimon]].
+[[Oliver Lee]] topped the scorers at 15.9 points per game, Robert Byrd was the top rebounder with 269, and Sam Worthen filled the role of playmaker, leading the team with 175 assists.
+The highlight of the season may have occured in Madison as the Warriors took on Duke, one of the top-ranked teams in the country.  Marquette rode a 12-7 record into the game, but to the astonishment of many, opened a 19-point lead, blew it, and still defeated the Blue Devils 80-77.
