After beating Duke in the championship of the CBE Classic last season in Kansas City, the Marquette Golden Eagles fell short of that goal in the Maui Invitational.
Freshman forward Kyle Singler scored 25 points, including the clinching free throws with 13 seconds left as the 13th ranked Blue Devils beat #11 Marquette 77-73.
The win gives Duke its 4th Maui Invitational Championship. Lazar Hayward had 14 to lead Marquette, which suffered it's first loss of the season (4-1).
