The last 30 seconds of Monday's game were so close, yet so far for No. 22 Xavier.

With time ticking down and Xavier trailing No. 7 Creighton by a single point, the Musketeers had four consecutive shots to take the lead late, three of which were within feet of the basket.

All four shots came up empty, and the Bluejays were able to convert their free throws and take the contest by a score of 72-67.

Creighton moves to 18-1 with the victory, while Xavier falls to 13-5.
