Marquette women’s basketball defeated the Morgan State University Lady Bears 70-48 in its season opener Tuesday.
“We played aggressive,” junior guard Selena Lott said. “We had some down moments, but our energy kept us up.”
It was the first win for Marquette’s new head coach Megan Duffy.
“(The first win) feels great,” Duffy said. “(I’m) just really thrilled to be here and continue to build this program in the right way.”
The Golden Eagles got out to a slow start in the first quarter. MU shot just 33.3% from the field, 16.7% from beyond the arc and finished the frame tied at 13-13.
