Last season, Duke annihilated Marquette men’s lacrosse 17-5 in Durham, North Carolina.
In the rematch Saturday, the Golden Eagles took the Blue Devils all the way into overtime, but they eventually fell 10-9 in the extra period to the nation’s No. 3 team.
MU had a chance to beat the Blue Devils for the first time in program history, but missed opportunities and a timely turnover doomed head coach Joe Amplo’s squad.
Marquette now owns a 0-7 all-time record against Duke.
Duke hopped to an early 3-1 lead in the game, but the Golden Eagles knotted the game at 3-3 by the end of the first quarter.
