Xavier scored first, and nearly two minutes into the game and after Marquette had two possessions, by the way, so Marquette’s 22-7 win over the visiting Musketeers is officially a come from behind win. The Golden Eagles are now a program best 12-1, breaking the single season wins record for the second time this week, and they move to 2-0 in Big East play as well.
XU’s Jess Harrison gets the credit for the first goal of the game, and perhaps scoring first emboldened the Musketeers. For the first 11 minutes of this game, things were going back and forth.
