Marquette women’s soccer entered Friday night looking for their third straight win and finish their non-conference schedule on a high note.
And the Golden Eagles did just that, defeating the North Dakota State University Bison 1-0 in double overtime at Valley Fields.
“First off credit to them, they came out with a game plan. They were very organized physical, defensively their sound and they look for their opportunities,” Marquette head coach Frank Pelaez said. “It was hard to break through it. Took us all the way to the end to breakthrough it.”
Despite outshooting them six to two in the first half, the North Dakota State University’s defense brought struggles to the Marquette offense resulting the score to remain nil nil at halftime.
