Point guard Cashmere Wright led four Cincinnati players in double figures with 15 points in a 67-60 win at Marquette on Wednesday. Dion Dixon and Ibrahima Thomas scored 12 points apiece and Yancy Gates posted a double-double with 11 points and 11 rebounds.
The improved play of Gates and Wright has coincided with the Bearcats' play of late, more than likely resulting in the first trip to the NCAA Tournament under head coach Mick Cronin.
