Marquette’s scrimmage against Rockhurst went exactly as you’d expect, especially when factoring in the Golden Eagles’ Division II opponent played last night against DePaul. The Golden Eagles handed Rockhurst, 106-53. You have to take everything with a grain of salt, but the scrimmage at least offers another chance to see how coach Steve Wojciechowski is using players and the style of the new additions. With nearly every player seeing the floor for about 15 to 20 minutes, we got a good look at the whole squad.
Howard gets a chance
The Golden Eagles’ starting lineup was the expected one, minus Markus Howard in at point guard in place of expected starter Traci Carter.
