Scouting Marquette (15-7, 9-2 BE)
Marquette bounced back from a loss to start the week against DePaul by dominating Providence 94-61 on Friday night.
Loaded with talent, Marquette has five players averaging over 12 points per game. The BIG EAST scoring leader Allazia Blockton leads the way for the Golden Eagles with 18.9 ppg.
Marquette's only two slip ups in conference play came against the Blue Demons and versus Georgetown on Jan. 19.
The Golden Eagles are a offensive force and key that offense with a pesky pressure. Marquette averages over 10 steals per game.
Keys Against Marquette
Five Bluejays Reach Doule-Digit for First Time in Over a Calendar Year
Creighton showed an impressive ability to share the basketball at DePaul on Feb. 2 as five Bluejays reached double figures. The last time at least five Bluejays topped 10 points in a contest was at Marquette on Jan. 29, 2017.
This time the quartet were Sydney Lamberty (14), Audrey Faber (13), Temi Carda (12), Jaylyn Agnew (11) and Ali Greene (10).
Last season at Marquette the group was similar; Faber (14), Lamberty (14), Agnew (12), Marissa Janning (12) and Lauren Works (12).
Single Digits Quarters Cropping Up in BIG EAST Play
During non-conference action the Bluejays were held under 10 just once, that coming versus Florida State in the third quarter on Dec. 21.
However in BIG EAST action the Bluejays have put up single digits in a quarter eight times.
Since women's basketball moved to quarters prior to the 2015-16 season, the Bluejays have limited opponents to single digits 34 times (not including overtime). Creighton, meanwhile, has been held to nine or less 30 times.
Agnew Delivers Back-to-Back Double-Doubles
After posting her first double-double earlier this season against Northern Iowa (Nov. 21), sophomore Jaylyn Agnew delivered back-to-back double-doubles against Seton Hall (Jan. 28) and at DePaul on Feb. 2.
Agnew put up 11 points and 10 boards against the Blue Demons, while she had 14 points and 12 rebounds against the Pirates.
The last Bluejay to record consecutive double-doubles was Brianna Rollerson last seaosn.
Last Time Bluejays Dropped Both Halves of BIG EAST Road Trip Was in 2015-16
Following the loss at Butler, Creighton will try to salvage the road trip at Xavier on Monday. The last time Creighton was swept on a BIG EAST road trip was Jan. 22 & Jan. 24 at Marquette and DePaul. Creighton was also downed in a one-game trip to Providence on Feb. 14.

The Golden Eagles are a offensive force and key that offense with a pesky pressure. Marquette averages over 10 steals per game.
Keys Against Marquette
- Rebound: The boards are a focus for Creighton in each contest, but Marquette grabbed 17 offensive rebounds in the first meeting.
- Ball Control: Creighton committed 16 turnovers, leading to 19 points, in the first meeting. The Bluejays must move that total down to limit extra Marquette possessions.
- Consistency: Battlings a first place squad for the second consecutive game, Creighton must reduce the length of its poor shooting stretches.
