Marquette’s offense awoke from its season-long scoring slumber to earn its first victory of the season, defeating Seton Hall, 4-2.
In an effort to switch things up after allowing five goals in the previous two games, Bennett went with a back line that had never played before together. Grant Owens started at right back alongside Brendan Skinner, Patrick Seagrist, Jack Alberts. In addition, Diego Nunez was at the forward position. Despite an unusual starting eleven, head coach Louis Bennett believed that the shake-up helped defend one of the conference’s best forwards in Andres Arcila.
“The back line had never played before together in their collegiate careers, and I thought they did really well,” Bennett said.
