The Sycamores led 34-27 at intermission and were up 41-35 before Creighton rallied to tie at 41 on Stinnett's 3-pointer and Andrew Bock's three-point play.

But two free throws by Lathan sandwiched a 3-pointer by Jordan Printy to give Indiana State a 46-41 edge. Marshall's 3-pointer extended that to 55-45 with 10:48 left. Creighton got no closer than four the rest of the way.

Creighton, which outrebounded Indiana State 38-36, is winless in seven road games.
