A freshman stole the show on Senior Night.
Alex Marcotullio, who had not scored more than seven points in a game since Jan. 2, had 15 in Northwestern's 72-49 victory over Chicago State.
Marcotullio, who was a key factor in NU's early-season success, nailed 5 of 7 attempts from 3-point land.
John Shurna scored a game-high 16 points for Northwestern, which improved to 19-11. Those 19 victories are the most in school history.
Senior Jeremy Nash shook off a slow start to finish with seven points and four steals.
