HOT DAMN! We've got a Championship Saturday to prepare for!
Powered by four goals from all-Big East First Teamer Ryan McNamara and a hat trick from Andy DeMichiei, #2 seed Marquette defeated #3 seed Villanova, 14-9, in the Big East men's lacrosse semifinals on Thursday evening. The Golden Eagles advance to Saturday's championship game, where they'll face the Denver Pioneers, who are both the #1 seed in the conference tournament and the #1 ranked team in the country.
It was a momentous win for Marquette, as it was the first time that MU has won a conference tournament game.
