Murray State fans began chanting “Tri-ple dou-ble!” to celebrate an upset in the first round of the West Region. Murray State (28-4) continued a trend of 12 seeds beating 5s in March. Murray State was never threatened in the second half by Marquette of the Big East. Murray State can always count on having the best player on the floor no matter who it plays, save for perhaps Duke’s Zion Williamson. “Ja deserves every bit of credit he gets and then some,” Murray State coach Matt McMahon said.
