When it comes to women’s soccer, Villanova quite literally has nothing on Marquette. With their 2-0 win on Thursday night, the Golden Eagles improve to 8-0-0 all-time against the Wildcats, who have never scored against Marquette.
Liz Bartels opened the scoring in the 20th minute with her third goal of the season. She took a pass from Molly Pfeiffer and made a quick cut inside the 18-yard-box to lose her defender. From there the senior forward rifled the ball into the netting on the far side of the box.
In the first minute of the second half, a nice Marquette buildup led to a dangerous Caroline Fink cross.
