DePaul women’s basketball falls short of third Big East title

MILWAUKEE – If there is anything that Tuesday night’s 2017 Women’s Big East championship proved, it’s that NCAA women’s basketball is in no way, shape, or form inherently boring – and, of course, that anything can happen in March.

Basketball fans got exactly what they signed up for in the third and final meeting between the DePaul Blue Demons and the Marquette Golden Eagles. The lead changed hands 15 times in a fast-paced war between two high-octane offenses as the Golden Eagles upset the no.1 seeded Blue Demons 86-78 in an Al McGuire Center soaked the infamous madness of March.
