As the regular season goes on, conference games begin to make a huge difference in not only the standings but how far a team will go in the postseason. The Creighton Bluejays Women’s Basketball team were tied for first place in the Big East as they hosted the Marquette Golden Eagles in a pivotal conference matchup. The Bluejays were able to keep pace as they are still tied for first place with a record of 13-3 following a tight 71-68 win over the Eagles.
“They played really well, and we had a double digit lead, but they played really well in the second half,” Head Coach Jim Flanery said.
