Criminy.
Kyran Clarke answered Myles Jones' goal at the 8:36 mark of the first quarter, and that was it for the Golden Eagles on Friday night, as #16 Duke defeated #15 Marquette, 16-1. It's not the worst beating that MU has ever suffered, as they got cracked 19-3 by Duke back in 2013. It's the lowest goal output by Marquette in program history though, surpassing the three goals scored by MU in last year's loss to Bellarmine.
That loss to Bellarmine ended up crushing Marquette's chances at an NCAA tournament berth, and this game may have done the same for this year's edition of the Golden Eagles.
