Kam Jones, Oso Ighodaro and Tyler Kolek each scored 14 points to lead a balanced scoring attack and No. 10 Marquette beat Georgetown 89-75.

It was a 96-73 thumping of Georgetown, the program Ewing starred for in the 1980s and now coaches. “We didn't bring our ‘A’ game,” Ewing said. He was called for a flagrant-one foul when he took down Georgetown big man Timothy Ighoefe by the neck while Ighoefe was going up for what looked like an easy bucket. Walker became the 16th player in tournament history to shoot at least five 3s and make them all. By making the surprise trip to the tournament, Ewing alleviated some of the heat he was starting to feel back home.
