Marquette women’s soccer’s NCAA Tournament fate was announced during Monday afternoon’s selection show, and, somewhat surprisingly, the team will have to travel. The Golden Eagles will head to Madison to take on the Wisconsin Badgers for their first round game.
“First of all we’re in the NCAA Tournament, how exciting is that?” head coach Markus Roeders said. “You know, one of the at-large teams that got in. They consider us one of the top teams in the country and here we are.”
This is Marquette’s 14th official meeting with Wisconsin, and they own a 5-6-2 record all-time against the Badgers.
