2017 Big East Women's Basketball Tournament: Marquette 80, Georgetown 66

Powered by five double-digit scoring performances, #3 seeded Marquette defeated #6 seeded Georgetown, 80-64, in the Big East tournament quarterfinal round on Sunday afternoon. The Golden Eagles advance to the semifinals on Monday afternoon, where they'll square off with #2 seeded Creighton.

The scoring was spread across all of the regulars pretty evenly, but the two best performances of the day belong to Danielle King and Amani Wilborn. King posted a career high 11 assists along with 14 points for her second double-double of the season, while Wilborn put up 12s in both the points and rebounds column, marking a new career high in boards for the sophomore from Milwaukee.
