MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — A dramatic victory over Marquette wasn't what West Virginia coach Bob Huggins had in mind with a showdown looming at No. 4 Purdue.

Da'Sean Butler's 19-foot jumper with 2 seconds left lifted the sixth-ranked Mountaineers to a 63-62 victory over Marquette last night.

West Virginia (11-0, 2-0 Big East) overcame a five-point deficit in the final minute and its lowest point total of the season to improve.

Butler scored eight of his 17 points over the final 12 minutes.

Lazar Hayward paced Marquette (9-4, 0-1) with 24 points.

With the Golden Eagles leading 62-61 with 11 seconds left, Marquette's Jimmy Butler missed a 1-and-1.

Da'Sean Butler rebounded the miss, dribbled the length of the court, turned around on the top right side of the key and buried a long jumper.
