Escaping the Milwaukee snowstorm and arriving at the sunny Rock Stadium, the Marquette women’s lacrosse team was looking for its first win on the road Saturday morning.

But the Golden Eagles (1-3) were not able to secure the win, falling short, 18-14, in their first-ever match against the Jacksonville Dolphins (1-3).

Lackluster first period, performative second

Marquette struggled to find its footing at the beginning of the first period, giving up two goals.

After its first timeout, a combination of saves from junior goalie Brynna Nixon and goals from sophomore Tess Osburn and junior Meg Bireley gave the Golden Eagles a glimmer of hope.
