Men’s lacrosse comes up short in barn-burner against Villanova

The Marquette’s men’s lacrosse team came up short Saturday afternoon against the Villanova Wildcats, by a score of 16-14.

Marquette now drops to 0-2 on the season with a 0-1 conference record in the BIG EAST. The first quarters were low scoring for both teams, but that all changed at once as both teams had an explosive seven goal stunt each in the second quarter.

Villanova junior midfielder Matt Campbell had a breakout performance for the Wildcats, scoring five goals, which rivaled his previous outing against the Golden Eagles in 2019 where he tallied up seven goals.
