After 20 minutes of basketball on Wednesday afternoon, we had watched two 18-15 quarters, one going each way, and Marquette women’s basketball found themselves tied with #24 DePaul at 33 points each. It was a nice 20 minutes between these two rivals who have faced off in each of the past four Big East tournament championship games. A little low scoring than what we’ve come to expect from them, but a nice start to a game.
And then Marquette had enough of that.
Towards the end of the third quarter, the Golden Eagles pushed their lead into double digits, outscoring the Blue Demons 30-23 at the end of the 10 minute segment.
