Women’s Basketball Holds The High Ground Against NJIT

Three Golden Eagles scored in double digits and two more missed out on a double-double as Marquette women’s basketball zipped past NJIT, 90-58, on Friday night. MU is now 2-0 on the season.

Marquette jumped out to a quick 9-4 lead before NJIT asserted themselves and turned the first quarter competitive.... right up until the Golden Eagles ripped off 11 straight points over the final four minutes to be up 22-10 at the end of the period. Super senior Karissa McLaughlin was the only player to score twice in the run with sophomore Danyel Middleton closing out the frame with a bucket.
