Marquette edged out Xavier 66-65 in a nail-biting National Collegiate Athletic Association conference battle on January 8, 2026. A last-second defensive stand secured a dramatic one-point home win for the Golden Eagles in a game that came down to the final possession. The contest was a defensive struggle throughout, with both teams trading leads multiple times in the second half. Marquette's star guard hit a difficult step-back jumper to give them a one-point lead with 15 seconds remaining.

The intensity was palpable, with several lead changes and neither team able to pull away by more than five points in the final ten minutes.
