Marquette records second most goals scored in first Big East win of season

It’s hard to believe this one was ever in doubt.

Marquette (6-4, 1-1 Big East) scored its second most goals in a single game in program history Saturday afternoon as it took down St. John’s (0-11, 0-2 Big East) 20-10 at Valley Fields.

But, it didn’t start off that easy.

St. John’s scored the first two goals of the game putting Marquette in a situation of dropping its second straight Big East game. But the Golden Eagles found their groove after the first quarter to earn their third home win of the season.

“We just allowed ourselves I think to take a deep breath there and just stay the course,” Marquette head coach Andrew Stimmel said.
