Spartans To Make Bradley Center Debut
For the second-straight game Marquette will be facing an opponent for the first time ever. Norfolk State, a member of the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference, is making its first appearance at the Bradley Center.
The Golden Eagles are a perfect 23-0 against programs currently in the MEAC, having faced nine of the 13 teams on at least one occasion. The most recent matchup came against Maryland Eastern Shore in the second game of the 2009-10 campaign and resulted in an 86-60 Marquette victory.
Norfolk State returns two starters and 11 letterwinners from last year’s squad, including Preseason MEAC Player of the Year Kyle O’Quinn. The 6-10 center claimed the league’s defensive player of the year award in 2010-11, the first-ever selection for NSU.
