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.

Jones finished with just 11 points on 5-of-13 shooting but got going late with a flurry of drives to the rim in the final minutes of regulation. David Joplin led Marquette with 18 and guard Stevie Mitchell was huge down the stretch, scoring seven straight to cut Xavier's lead to 53-49 at the final media timeout.
