On Wednesday night at Valley Fields, Marquette men’s soccer played their 9th match of the year. For the seventh time this season, the match was level at the end of regulation. Seven. Overtime. Games. In. Nine. Total. Contests.
Were this Premier League soccer, Marquette would be 2-0-7 on the season. But this is the NCAA, and so level at the end of 90 minutes means a 10 minute golden goal/sudden victory session. On Wednesday night, Marquette went to an extra session for the seventh time this season... and they emerged from overtime with a win for the fifth time this spring.
