Costly mistake ends season Scruggs fouled out of Wednesday's 89-82 1OT loss to Butler after recording 15 points (7-13 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 0-3 FT), three rebounds, six assists and one block across 39 minutes. Impact Scruggs scored efficiently and supplied a team-high six assists, but missed three free-throws with under a minute to play. Most notably, Scruggs went to the line after drawing a foul while sinking a spectacular shot, but failed to convert. He then proceeded to foul Simas Lukosius with Xavier only winning by two points -- fouling out in the process. Butler eventually earned the victory, resulting in a brutal exit for the fifth-year senior...barring luck from the NCAA selection committee.
