-====== March 21, 1970 - Marquette vs. St. John's======
-{{men_s_basketball:teams_marquette.gif|}} **Marquette 65 {{men_s_basketball:teams_stjohns.gif|}} St. John's 53**
-===== Recap  =====
-{{  men_s_basketball:hof_1970nit.jpg}}[[Al McGuire]] turned down a bid to the NCAA Midwest Regional in Fort Worth, Texas, after being denied an invitation to the Mideast Regional that was being held closer to home.  Marquette accepted a bid to play in the NIT in New York City.
-Marquette faced local favorite [[St. John’s]] in the NIT Final.  Bill Paultz pulled down 17 rebounds for the Redmen (a record for a Marquette opponent in an NIT game), but the Warriors still managed to bring home the Championship, 65-53.  Marquette's success came in spite of the fact that they shot just 58.2% from the foul line for the season, a mark of futility that stands to this day.  The team was ranked eighth in the final Associated Press poll and 10th in the final United Press International ranking.  They were ranked 10th in the nation in scoring defense, allowing 64.5 points per game.
