A lot of things went in Marquette‘s direction on Wednesday afternoon at Valley Fields, but two runs of five goals each by Denver and a horrific turnover situation in the first half tilted things in favor of the visitors as MU took a 17-11 loss to the Pioneers. With the loss, Marquette drops to 5-2 in Big East play after their second straight loss, and now sit in fourth place in the league standings with two games left to play.
Through most of the first half, the fact that Marquette was holding a lead was pretty impressive.
