Xavier beats Marquette in Big East Conference Tournament 89-87

Led by Jovan Milicevic's 21 points, the No. 10 seed Xavier Musketeers defeated the seventh-seeded Marquette Golden Eagles 89-87 in the Big East Conference Tournament
MARCH 12 • Associated Press
Running it back with Marquette James has announced his intentions to return to Marquette for the 2026-27 season. Jeff Goodman of TheFieldof68.com reports.
Impact James stated that he quote "never thought about leaving in the first place", when asked about his plans for next season. The 6-foot freshman was a bright spot in an otherwise rough season for the Golden Eagles, averaging 16.4 points, 3.5 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 1.9 steals across 31 games (28 starts). James will look to be a pivotal building block for Shaka Smart's squad heading into next season following Wednesday night's loss in the Big East Tournament.

FEBRUARY 23 • Associated Press
Scores 25 in Wednesday's loss James ended with 25 points (11-21 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-5 FT), four rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal across 35 minutes during Wednesday's 76-70 loss to St. John's.
Impact Coming off his best performance of the season where he scored 30 points and dished out 12 assists at Xavier, James had another strong outing Wednesday. He scored 25 points for the fourth time this season, shooting over 50 percent from the field versus a very good St. John's team. He only dished out three assists though, tied for his fewest since Nov. 12. It was a continuation of an excellent freshman season for James, and he's been particularly good since the start of 2026. He's now averaging 20.1 points, 3.5 rebounds, 6.1 assists and 1.8 steals since the start of the new year, establishing himself as one of the most prolific guards in the country.
