November 22, 2008 - Wisconsin-Milwaukee vs. Marquette

Wisconsin-Milwaukee 80 (17) Marquette 100

Marquette cruised to their 1,400th victory in school history, with their 36th consecutive victory (without a loss) against UW-Milwaukee, extending their NCAA record for most consecutive victories in a series without a loss. UW-Milwaukee sports writers contended Marquette was overrated coming into the game, but their national ranking proved not to be a factor in the outcome of the game, as they cruised to a 100-80 victory over their cross-town opponent.

Although UW-Milwaukee fans and members of the media indicated this series could easily out-draw most of Marquette's other non-conference opponents, bringing in as many as 20,000 fans, those numbers did not play out this year. The announced attendance at this game was 15,168 fans, exactly 108 more fans than Marquette drew for their home game against Savannah State during the Christmas break last season.

Game Story

MILWAUKEE (Ticker) - Wesley Matthews scored 25 points and Lazar Hayward had a career-high 25 and 10 rebounds as No. 17 Marquette continued its dominance over Wisconsin-Milwaukee with a 100-80 triumph on Saturday.

Jerel McNeal had 22 points and five steals and Dominic James added 16 and eight assists for the Golden Eagles (3-0), who have won all 36 meetings between the two schools which are separated by four miles. The winning streak is the second-longest active stretch against one opponent - Syracuse has beaten Colgate 42 straight times.

Marquette led by five at the break and scored the first 10 points after intermission to take a 55-40 lead with 18:12 remaining.

Patrick Hazel's putback of his own miss capped a 12-3 run as the Golden Eagles extended their lead to 67-48 with 13:52 remaining, and Wisconsin-Milwaukee failed to come closer than 11 points the rest of the way.

It was the third straight game of at least 25 points for Matthews, who scored a career-high 27 in Marquette's season-opening win against Houston Baptist. The senior shot 8-of-16 from the floor and 9-of-10 from the foul line.

Marquette jumped out to a 9-2 lead but Wisconsin-Milwaukee came right back and the contest was close throughout the first half.

Jason Averkamp's three-point play with 6:08 left gave the Panthers a 36-33 lead but the Golden Eagles closed strong, taking a 45-40 advantage into the locker room as Hayward had five points down the stretch.

Freshman Tone Boyle scored 23 points and Avery Smith had 22 for the Panthers (3-2), who shot 38 percent (25-of-66) from the field.
