Playing on the road against two teams receiving votes in the Inside Lacrosse Top 20 poll was never going to be an easy task for Marquette women’s lacrosse, and it proved to be just as challenging as expected.
The Golden Eagles lost 14-7 to Johns Hopkins in Maryland Friday and 16-8 to Louisville Sunday.
“We’ve got to learn how to come out with more confidence,” head coach Meredith Black said in a team-released video after the loss to John’s Hopkins.
After a free position goal from junior Grace Gabriel, the Blue Jays went on a six-goal run that included two goals by senior Emily Kenul and two by senior Shannon Fitzgerald.
