For about 10 minutes, it looked like Marquette women’s soccer was going to achieve a program first: defeating a top-five team. The team had a 1-0 lead over No. 4 Georgetown with 28 minutes remaining in regulation.

“We changed our mindset to, ‘Let’s go out there and have some fun,’” Marquette junior goalkeeper Maddy Henry said. “That really, really made an impact tonight.”

Instead, the Golden Eagles lost to No. 4 Georgetown 2-1 in double overtime on a Caitlin Farrell golden goal in the 102nd minute.

“Georgetown’s craftiness just came out a little bit,” Henry said.
