Marquette Golden Eagles women’s basketball had no answer on defense for Providence’s two best players on Friday night, which led to the Friars pulling the 66-64 upset over the Golden Eagles.
Marquette falls to 16-5 overall and 7-3 in league play, snapping a four game winning streak along the way. Providence moves to 2-8 in Big East games and 10-11 overall. The win ends a seven game losing streak for PC and now gives them one more conference win than they had all of last season.
Yeah, this was a bad loss for Marquette, and, from a certain perspective, it was 100% avoidable.
