After a falling to Seton Hall due to poor shooting Saturday, Marquette women’s basketball turned things around Wednesday and defeated the Cincinnati Bearcats 60-49 at the Al McGuire Center.
“Just excited to get a win before the Christmas break,” Marquette head coach Megan Duffy said. “Really proud of a lot of different people stepping up today. When Jordan King got a couple of fouls and we had to take her out, and Karissa McLaughlin went out with an injury, I thought our entire collective group rose up together and gutted it out.”
The first quarter featured back-and-forth action at the start, before the Golden Eagles pushed a 5-0 run to get up 10-2 forcing the Bearcats to call a timeout.
