Marquette women’s soccer dropped to 0-3-1 on the season on Thursday night after taking a 2-0 shutout loss to #12 Duke.
It honestly probably should have been worse.
Both of Duke’s goals came in a five minute span midway through the second half. First it was Mackenzie Pluck beating MU keeper Maddy Henry off a feed from Ella Stevens in the 68th minute, then it was Stevens getting a goal of her own in the 73rd minute. Hey, they’re #12 in the country. It happens.
You have to feel slightly bad for Henry, though.
