Game Preview

On Saturday night, Purdue partied.

After the No. 2 Boilermakers held off Michigan State to clinch a share of their league-best 26th Big Ten crown, enough confetti fell from the Mackey Arena rafters for Zach Edey and his mates to make confetti angels on the court.

“It’s a great accomplishment to win back-to-back Big Ten championships,” Purdue coach Matt Painter said. “It’s a very difficult task. We’re happy for our entire team, but really happy for our seniors. Those guys have hung in there, been very successful and they’ve done things the right way.”
