MU ladies with another nice win, they are having a good season!

They were an 8 seed in the latest bracketology, and now have four wins over ranked teams. Should get one more win to be safe, but they look to be dancing. Of course, as the host of the conference tournament, why not just go out and get the auto bid.

Marcus Foster scored a career-high 35 points and No. 20 Creighton broke open the game early in the second half in an 87-70 victory over Georgetown on Sunday.

Creighton (22-5, 9-5 Big East) shot 53 percent while avenging a 20-point road loss to the Hoyas on Jan 25. Georgetown (14-13, 5-9) shot just 38.5 percent in its first game since Feb. 11 and was 3 of 22 from 3-point range.

Isaiah Zierden added 13 points and Justin Patton and Cole Huff had 10 apiece for the Bluejays.

Nate Fowler scored 15 points, Kelan Martin added 14 points and eight rebounds and No. 24 Butler took advantage of two big scoring runs to blow out DePaul 82-66 on Sunday for its first back-to-back wins in almost a month.

''All around us, people said the sky was falling and we were still practicing well,'' Holtmann said. ''That's a credit to them.''

Butler's resurgence couldn't come at a better time.

With trips to No. 2 Villanova and Xavier looming later this week, Butler (21-6, 10-5 Big East) has sole possession of second place in the league and a chance to pad an already impressive NCAA Tournament resume that includes five wins over ranked teams.
