The Marquette women’s lacrosse team (5-8) has never lost against Butler (2-9) in the two programs’ seven meetings.

Wednesday, when they faced the Bulldogs at home, senior midfielder Leigh Steiner made sure they would keep their undefeated record with a history-book performance: a program single-game-high-tying eight goals.

“It was definitely exciting,” Steiner said. “It’s just cool to see how far program has come in the time that I’ve been here. Obviously last season was historic, but I just think every season we keep pushing our limits and keep pushing what we can do.
