MILWAUKEE — If career victory No. 800 wasn't enough to jog Connecticut coach Jim Calhoun's memory, watching senior guard A.J. Price scored a career-high 36 points certainly got him reminiscing about some of the standouts who have played for him over the years.

The second-ranked Huskies beat No. 8 Marquette 93-82 on Wednesday night, making Calhoun the seventh coach to win 800 games in Division I history.

"To have a game like that to help him get to 800 means a lot to me," Price said. "I couldn't be more happy for him."

The Huskies (26-2, 14-2 Big East) broke Marquette's 17-game home winning streak, but that wasn't the worst of it for the Golden Eagles.

Senior guard Dominic James broke the fifth metatarsal bone in his left foot, and Marquette coach Buzz Williams announced after the game that James' college career is over.

"We'll be accountable, win or lose," Williams said. "We'll be grown (up) in how we handle it, because that's part of life."

James was an integral part of one of the country's top perimeter units, alongside fellow seniors Jerel McNeal and Wesley Matthews. Still, the short-handed Golden Eagles (23-5, 12-3) stayed in contention into the final minutes until Price clinched the game by hitting a 3-pointer with 1:10 left.

Calhoun said Price's big game reminded him of past Huskies greats such as Ben Gordon, Ray Allen and Richard Hamilton.

"Just for him to mention my name in the same sentence as those guys is special," Price said. "On the other hand I can't enjoy it too much right now because we're in the season. We want to take this team somewhere special, and that's to the Final Four."

With the win, Calhoun joined Bob Knight, Dean Smith, Adolph Rupp, Jim Phelan, Mike Krzyzewski and Eddie Sutton as the only coaches with 800 Division I wins.

"I looked around at that list, and I'm really happy to be in their company," Calhoun said.

Although Calhoun had reason to celebrate, he still couldn't quite dodge the fallout from his recent dustup with a freelance journalist.

Marquette's student section chanted "Not one dime," paraphrasing Calhoun's terse response to a question about his willingness to give back part of his salary during hard economic times.
