Marquette's Tyler Kolek displayed remarkable dedication by hitting a catch-and-shoot 3-pointer despite sustaining a cut on his face during the game against Providence. Marquette, ranked No. 5, dominated Providence with a 50-26 lead at halftime, showcasing their strength as a projected 2 seed under coach Shaka Smart. Kolek later suffered an oblique strain and had to leave the game, but Marquette still secured a significant victory over Providence.
