MILWAUKEE — Zach Freemantle had 14 points and 10 rebounds and Xavier hung on in the final seconds to beat No. 7 Marquette 59-57 to earn its third straight victory while snapping the Golden Eagles' six-game winning streak. Xavier (12-7, 4-4 Big East) never trailed and led by as many as 19 but needed to make a stop in the final seconds to preserve the victory. Xavier's Dailyn Swain appeared to knock the ball away as Marquette's Stevie Mitchell was driving to the basket before a potential tying shot could be attempted.
