Marquette women’s basketball earned its third straight win of the season defeating Southern University 65-40 at the Al McGuire Center Monday afternoon.
“Excited about winning this afternoon, we knew this was going to be a challenge for us with Southern coming into our building, they’re a great team and they’re going to have a great season down the road,” Marquette women’s basketball head coach Megan Duffy said. “We have been on a long stretch so it was really important that we found a way to get this win.”
In the first quarter, Southern’s defense brought struggles to Marquette causing the Golden Eagles to turnover the ball multiple times in the opening minutes.
