As we talked about in the preview of Thursday’s women’s soccer match between Marquette and Connecticut, the Huskies have a notable trend going on this season. Quite simply, when they score goals they win and when they do not score goals, they lose. It’s not a perfect situation, but they have just one goal in their five losses this fall with four shutouts.
So, when Jada Konte scored in the 10th minute for UConn, it was a bad sign for Marquette. That bad sign got driven home twice in the second half when the Huskies tacked on two more goals on their way to a 3-0 victory over the Golden Eagles.
