Marquette wins season opener

After a long offseason filled with many challenges on and off the court, college basketball made its return across the nation on Wednesday, including the Marquette Golden Eagles hosting Arkansas-Pine Bluff at Fiserv Forum.

The men’s basketball team is the first sport at the university to play a game in the 2020-21 academic year at Marquette, and the first live action in a men’s sport since a tennis match back in March. The Golden Eagles came out on top by a score of 99-57.

Marquette started the game off strong and never looked back. They dropped 50 points in the first half while shooting 56.
