For the second time this season, Marquette women’s lacrosse finds themselves with an opportunity to clinch the first Big East tournament appearance in program history.
MU had the opportunity to lock up their spot a week and a half ago when they hosted Denver at Valley Fields, but the Golden Eagles committed way too many turnovers in the first half and let the Pioneers hang around and eventually pull away at the end. That was the second of three straight losses for the Golden Eagles since starting out league play 5-0, and last week’s overtime heartbreaker to Georgetown was the third in a row.
