Marquette and Escanaba are an even 5-5 against one another since February of 2020, but not for long. The Marquette Redmen just played yesterday, but they'll still head out to face the Escanaba Eskymos at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday. The teams are on pretty different trajectories at the moment (Marquette has 15 straight victories, Escanaba has four straight losses), but none of that matters once you're on the court.
On Tuesday, Marquette humbled Houghton with a 98-50 victory. The Redmen have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won 12 matches by 20 points or more this season.
Meanwhile, Escanaba was beaten by Norway 78-51 on Friday. While losing is never fun, the Eskymos can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Michigan basketball rankings (they are ranked 310th, while the Knights are ranked 142nd).
Marquette pushed their record up to 16-2 with the win, which was their seventh straight on the road. They've dominated over that stretch too, winning by an average of 34.1 points. As for Escanaba, their defeat dropped their record down to 8-12.
Everything came up roses for Marquette against Escanaba when the teams last played back in January, as the team secured a 71-30 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for Marquette since the squad won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
