Bad news: Their next game isn’t a Big East game, so they can’t clinch it on Wednesday afternoon.
Good news: That means the pressure regarding the conference tournament spot is off, making this a leisurely trip to Indiana for a game.
Bad news: Marquette has never beaten Notre Dame at lacrosse.
Good news: Of the three monoliths on the Marquette schedule year in and year out — Duke, Notre Dame, and Denver — Notre Dame has proven to be the most beatable, at least in the regular season.
