With plenty at stake in terms of the Big East standings, two teams will aim to continue their momentum into March when UConn hosts No. 20 Marquette on Wednesday in Storrs, Conn.Marquette (22-7, 13-5 Big East) has taken care of business in two straight games, dominating Providence at home and winning at Georgetown 76-61 on Saturday night.Scoring leader Kam Jones had just 13 points but led the way with a season-high 13 assists. Marquette head coach Shaka Smart commented on his impact away from scoring and shooting 3-pointers.”He came into the year, people thinking of him as a shooting guard,” Smart said. “What he’s doing, passing the ball, on a night where he went 0-for-5 from three … the fact that he can be a threat and have almost double-digit assists in a half is pretty powerful.”It’s a very similar story for UConn (20-9, 12-6), which has also cruised to wins against the same two teams in the past week. The Huskies beat Georgetown at home 93-79 on Wednesday before going to Providence and winning 75-63 on Saturday.Huskies coach Dan Hurley spoke on the swings his team has taken this season and the improvements he’s seen in the last two games.”When our defensive rebounding sucked we shot the heck out of the ball, then our rebounding improved but our shooting turned to crap,” Hurley said. “It feels like maybe the last two games … the shooting is coming back and the rebounding is improving.”Solo Ball leads all qualified Huskies with 14.9 points per game. Hassan Diarra averages six assists and 1.5 steals while Tarris Reed Jr. leads down low, averaging 7.4 rebounds and 1.8 blocks.Jones guides Marquette offensively, averaging 18.4 points and 6.2 assists per game. David Joplin grabs a team-high 5.3 rebounds, while Stevie Mitchell is among the leaders in the country at 2.4 steals per game.
