Kansas Holds Off Creighton in Final Minute, Advances to Sweet 16
Remy Martin led the Jayhawks with 20 points, 16 of which came in the first halfThe Kansas Jayhawks pulled away from the Creighton Bluejays in the final minute of their second-round matchup for a 79-72 victory, narrowly avoiding the fate of fellow No. 1 seed Baylor. The Bears were upset by No. 8 North Carolina on the same court just hours before.
With second-leading scorer Ryan Kalkbrenner sidelined after suffering a knee injury in the Bluejays’ first-round win over San Diego State, Creighton once again proved their ability to adjust in a season plagued by injuries. They opened the first half with three 3-pointers and led 13-7, their largest lead of the afternoon, less than five minutes into the half.
Creighton never regained the lead after returning from the break, but they stuck around to give Kansas a serious scare.
