Julianna Shearer broke her own program record for goals in a game with six on Saturday afternoon, but it wasn’t enough as Marquette fell to #17 Northwestern, 18-10. The Golden Eagles are now 2-5 on the season with five losses to ranked opponents and have never beaten a ranked foe in program history.
It wasn’t all bad for Marquette. In fact, the first 29 minutes were pretty good! After Northwestern opened up with the first three goals of the game, MU answered back with two of their own from Shearer. Her first two goals of the game was the start of the two teams trading markers.
