A nine point lead with less than three minutes to go almost didn’t mean a thing for Marquette women’s basketball on Friday night at the McGuire Center, but by the time the horn went, that nine point lead was the exact right amount that the Golden Eagles needed. Your final: Marquette 61, Providence 59, in a game that neither team is going to look back upon with fond memories of how they shot the ball. Marquette is now 16-5 on the season with a 9-3 record in Big East action after recording their fifth straight win.
Marquette Outlasts Providence
