Junior forward Sam Hauser poured in 25 points, including 20 points on 6-of-7 shooting in the second half to lead the Marquette Golden Eagles to a 79-68 win over Providence at Fiserv Forum on Sunday.

The Golden Eagles (16-3, 5-1 Big East) improved to 13-0 at their new home arena.

Hauser was coming off a collegiate high 31 points in a win over Georgetown earlier in the week.

Providence held an eight-point lead at the break, with both teams combining to make just 7 of 27 three-pointers.  Marquette shot 28% (7 for 25) overall.

The Golden Eagles took the lead for good when Sacar Anim’s 3-pointer was good from the corner with about 10 minutes left.

Markus Howard returned to the lineup with 24 points but hit just 4 of 15 from the field.  But Howard did make 14 of his 16 free throw attempts.  Forward Ed Morrow was back as well, finishing with nine points.

The Golden Eagles return to Big East action on Wednesday at home against the De Paul Blue Demons.

It’s understandable that Marquette was a little sloppy, playing their first game in 10 days, but the Golden Eagles still rolled to a 92-66 win over North Dakota at Fiserv Forum.

The Golden Eagles had 11 turnovers in the first 11 minutes and finished with 22 for the game.  But Marquette still improved to 9-2, winning their sixth straight game.

Markus Howard poured in 26 points and Sam Hauser added 21 to lead the Golden Eagles.  The two combined to hit 9 of 14 from beyond the arc.

Newcomer Ed Morrow also had his best offensive night of the season, scoring 18 points.

Marquette returns to the court on Friday when they host unbeaten Buffalo (10-0).

Three of the state’s NCAA Division I men’s basketball programs were impacted Wednesday by news of players transferring. UW-Green Bay freshman Trevor Anderson announced he’ll be leaving the Phoenix, and his scholarship, to walk on with the Wisconsin Badgers.

Anderson averaged 9.8 nearly ten points, 2.9 rebounds, and 2.7 assists while shooting nearly 38% from three-point range as the starting point guard at UWGB before a back injury ended his first season. The 6’2″ Anderson was the state’s Mr. Basketball leading Stevens Point Area Senior High to back-to-back state titles. He scored 2,360 points in his high school career. Per NCAA transfer rules, Anderson will sit out the 2017-18 season and have three years of eligibility remaining.

Wisconsin added another 2,000-point prep scorer Wednesday with 6’3″ walk-on guard Walt McGrory from Edina, Minnesota. McGrory turned down scholarship offers from Drake and South Dakota State, among others, to join the Badgers.

As first reported by ESPN, the Marquette Golden Eagles will add Nebraska transfer Ed Morrow to their 2018-19 roster. The 6’7″ power forward averaged 9.4 points and 7.5 rebounds last year for the Cornhuskers. The Chicago, Illinois, native will have two year of eligibility remaining after sitting out the upcoming season per NCAA transfer rules.

Wisconsin and Marquette each have one scholarship left to use for 2017-18.
