Photo Gallery: Creighton Loses another heartbreaker, this time to #4 Villanova

Box Score

How do you spell heartbreak?  For the Creighton men’s basketball team, they are becoming professionals at the spelling bee.  After a hard fought game with the #4 team in the country and a chance to tie or win in the final seconds, the Bluejays came up short once again in a 76-72 loss against Villanova on Tuesday night.

Will Artino’s layup attempt with a couple seconds remaining bounced off the side of the rim and the Wildcats were able to secure the victory after a disastrous final seconds.  Austin Chatman led the way for the Bluejays with 21 points, scoring 20+ in back to back games.

Despite the loss, the WBR photographers were out in full force on Tuesday night.  Check out the full gallery that will be updated periodically here, or see the photo slideshow below, with photos from Adam Streur, Brad Williams, and Mike Spomer.
