After a record-setting performance from senior Allazia Blockton, No. 18 Marquette women’s basketball defeated the Northwestern Wildcats 74-57 at the Welsh-Ryan Arena.
Blockton became the program’s all-time scoring leader with 1,946 points surpassing Krystal Ellis’ record of 1,940. She led the team with 21 points on 10-for-20 shooting.
“Quite an accomplishment that will obviously go down in history,” head coach Carolyn Kieger said. “We celebrated that in the locker room, and that’s a testament to her, her work, and her teammates.”
“It feels good,” Blockton said. “I didn’t know I was close. I don’t really pay attention to stuff like that, and then after (Kieger) came in, she congratulated me, and it was just a great moment.
