The Marquette women’s basketball team clinched the three seed in the BIG EAST Tournament with an 80-70 win over Georgetown on Friday night.
The Golden Eagles committed 14 turnovers and shot 42 percent from the field, but a balanced offensive attack with four players scoring in double digits helped guide Marquette to victory.
“This is a huge win. I mean, Georgetown is a really really good team,” head coach Carolyn Kieger said. “Obviously helping our NCAA resume as we just keep going down the stretch. We needed this one and I think our team just found a way to win.
