Five score hat tricks in women’s lacrosse victory

At times, the women’s lacrosse team made it look easy Saturday afternoon when they defeated Villanova 20-6.

After a heartbreaking overtime loss against Temple last weekend, the Golden Eagles needed to respond and take care of business. From the get-go Marquette was dominating in play and jumped out to an early 4-0 lead. Junior Charlotte McGuire tallied two quick goals to help Marquette take command. Villanova had no answer for Marquette, as the Wildcats were held scoreless until four minutes left in the first half.

“We came out with a lot of energy and passion and that really helped us,” head coach Meredith Black said.
