No. 23 Marquette extends undefeated streak with 87-52 win

No. 23 Marquette women’s basketball just can’t seem to lose.

Starting the year undefeated, the Golden Eagles (8-0) kept to their winning ways and beat the Penn Quakers 87-52 Sunday afternoon at the Al McGuire Center.

“I was really looking forward to this game,” Marquette head coach Megan Duffy said. “Their (Penn) style of playing 5-out and always moving and cutting and five people on the floor who can score, we were concerned about just getting in the swing of things with a different style. I thought overall just a great team effort.”

Heading into halftime, Marquette led 37-24.
