Following its two-game road trip to open up the season, the Marquette women’s soccer team returned home in search of its first win over crosstown rival the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee since 2018.
However, the Golden Eagles will have to wait at least another year to meet that feat as the Panthers defeated Marquette 1-0 Thursday night at Valley Fields.
Marquette came out of the gate with aggressive, physical and attacking game plan recording three shots on goal in the first 18 minutes of the match.
In the 17th minute, senior forward Alex Campana worked up the right sidelines on the breakaway giving the Golden Eagles their best shot during that span to strike.
