After suffering their first loss of the season on Friday night, Marquette women’s basketball bounced back less than 24 hours later with an 89-75 victory over Pacific on Saturday.
The Golden Eagles are now 5-1 on the season and 2-1 this week after appearing on seven Associated Press ballots last Monday. MU picked up another win over a ranked team on Tuesday, but that is balanced out by a loss to Santa Clara on Friday. We’ll have to wait to see how the voters deal with that dichotomy, but I wouldn’t expect to see the Golden Eagles improve on their standing all that much, if at all.
