Uninspiring, disheartening, dismal — any of these adjectives could be used to describe Marquette’s performance at Georgetown Saturday afternoon. The Golden Eagles were sluggish out of the gates and could not find their offensive rhythm in the 80-62 loss to the Hoyas.
It was the second-lowest offensive output for Marquette on the season as they shot just 41.8 percent from the field and 21.4 percent from behind the arc. The offense never seemed to click as the Golden Eagles assisted on just nine baskets. This resulted in Marquette playing catch-up for most of the game as Georgetown commanded the lead for 37 minutes.
