Heading into its third Big East matchup, Marquette women’s soccer was looking for its third road win in program history against Creighton.
The Golden Eagles (5-5-2, 1-1) did exactly that, defeating the Bluejays (2-4-5, 0-3 Big East) 3-1 Thursday night at Morrison Stadium.
This victory also marked Marquette’s third win on the road this season.
Hailey Block causes havoc
Now in her fifth collegiate season, senior defender Hailey Block had never scored more than one goal in a match. Until tonight.
In just the second minute of the game, Block controlled the ball deflected off senior forward Elsi Twombly and fired it into the bottom right corner to put Marquette in front 1-0.
