Marquette drops second-straight on the road

After suffering their first loss of the season on Monday with a 1-0 defeat to Tulsa, No. 13 Marquette men’s soccer dropped its second-straight match on the road with a 3-0 defeat to Northern Illinois University Friday night.

In a battle between two 3-1 squads on the season, the hosts had complete control throughout the 90 minutes and gave the Golden Eagles their first two-game losing streak since 2019.

The Huskies started the scoring early, as in the 4th minute senior forward Nick Markanich slotted one past MU goalkeeper Chandler Hallwood to give the Huskies a 1-0 lead.
