BASELINE: Women’s basketball picks up ninth home win of the season

Coming off a dominant 80-61 victory over Seton Hall Sunday afternoon, Marquette women’s basketball went into its mid-week match-up against Xavier in hopes of securing another Big East win.

And the Golden Eagles did just that defeating the Musketeers 64-40 at the Al McGuire Center Wednesday night.

Here’s a breakdown of the win:
