Andy DeMichiei tries to evade a Penn defender in Marquette's scrimmage Saturday.
A loss highlighted Marquette’s final day of scrimmages, but head coach Joe Amplo didn’t sound too worried after the game. The Golden Eagles fell 7-2 to Penn at the dome, but Amplo stressed the game looked closer than the final score.
“We played harder than them and they executed better,” Amplo said. “That’s the way it goes. … It was a good game and they just separated at the end. We realize there’s a small margin for error for us.”
Ryan McNamara was the only Golden Eagle able to solve the Penn defense, scoring both of Marquette’s goals.
