Marquette grabs 3rd place in Orlando

December 1, 2014 By Bill Scott

MarquetteGoldenEagles2The Marquette Golden Eagles grabbed the consolation game of the Orlando Classic on Sunday, knocking off Tennessee 67-59.

Redshirt freshman Duane Wilson scored 30 points on 9-for-17 shooting, including four big second-half three-pointers.  The Golden Eagles (4-3) forced the Volunteers into 15 turnovers and held them to 42.6% shooting.

The Golden Eagles never trailed in the second half, but the Volunteers did pull to within one with 10:35 left to play.  That’s when Wilson took over.

Wilson hit a pair of back-to-back three’s to kick off an 11-2 run.  His 30 points were a career high and marked the second time a Marquette player scored 30-plus points during the tournament.  Senior Matt Carlino had 38 against Georgia Tech and was named to the all-tournament team.
