Senior guard Selena Lott scored 17 of her team-high 26 points in the first 20 minutes as the Golden Eagles built a 49-30 lead heading into halftime.

A strong defensive effort paved the way to victory for Marquette (3-1), as it caused 18 turnovers and scored 21 points off those takeaways. The Golden Eagles also won the battle on the glass, 37-33, and held UC to just 18 percent (2-11) from 3-point range.
