It’s a big Easter weekend for Marquette women’s lacrosse. Anytime you’re hosting a ranked team, it’s a big deal. But that’s Monday’s game, and it’s a non-conference game, too, so we’re not going to worry too much about the impact of that game on the season. Marquette isn’t an at-large candidate for the NCAA tournament this season, so all that game will be for is bragging rights and pride.
Saturday’s game, though, that’s a big one. Marquette is 1-1 in Big East play and currently sits in a tie for third place in the standings with the team that they lost to already.
