2016 Big East Men's Lacrosse Tournament Semifinals Preview

Get yourself ready for tonight's semifinal action, including your Golden Eagles taking on Villanova in the first game from Denver.

Big East Semifinal #1

#2 Marquette (9-4, 4-1 Big East) vs #3 Villanova (9-4, 3-2 Big East)

In the regular season meeting between these two squads, Marquette obliterated Villanova, 11-3. The result itself isn't shocking, even if Villanova was ranked in the top 5 in the country at the time and Marquette wasn't ranked at all: it was a home game for the Golden Eagles and MU had been picking up a vote or three in the polls at the start of the season.
