After a missed buzzer-beater shot in overtime, Marquette’s women’s basketball season came to an end in the blink of an eye when they fell to South Florida in the Round of 64 of the NCAA Tournament last season.
But the Golden Eagles have long forgotten about last year’s heartbreaking end.
Marquette is the No. 19 team in the country and is out to its best start in program history at 9-0. It is the highest the Golden Eagles have ever been ranked under head coach Megan Duffy, and 11 spots off the highest they’ve ever been ranked.
