Billy Garrett Jr. added 13 points before fouling out with 2:47 remaining for DePaul (11-9, 5-2 Big East), which overcame a 19-of-33 performance from the free-throw line. Darrick Wood scored 11 points off the bench while fellow reserve Rashaun Stimage collected 10 points and seven rebounds for the Blue Demons, who survived 37.5 percent shooting from the field.
