After an unflattering first two-plus minutes in which Marquette fell behind 10-2 to St. John’s Friday night, MU head coach Megan Duffy had a simple message for her team:
“She was just saying that this is not us,” junior guard Selena Lott said.
Duffy’s team responded to that message with a 94-85 win over the Red Storm at the Al McGuire Center. It was Marquette’s first home BIG EAST win in the Duffy era.
“I can’t tell you how proud I am of our team,” Duffy said. “They had a different look about themselves. … It was fun to watch.
