Marquette women’s basketball suffered its first setback of the season Friday night as they came up short 69-53 against University of Colorado at CU Event Center.
It is the Golden Eagles first loss in the 2021-22 season.
At the end of the first quarter, it was knotted up at 15-15, with Marquette being led by sophomore forward Liza Karlen’s five points in the opening frame.
The start of the second quarter followed a similar trend as the first, resulting in both teams trading blows.
Then Colorado began to separate themselves over the final five minutes of the first half.
