The Golden Eagles may not have won this weekend, but there was certainly improvement.
“The things we worked on last week were light years ahead of where we were in terms of the things we wanted to do,” Marquette head coach Joe Amplo said. “We’re not there yet, and that’s O.K. … I’m pleased with our progression.”
Marquette fell 10-8 to the High Point Panthers, the third straight scrimmage loss. Amplo chalked up the lack of execution to High Point being a week ahead of Marquette’s schedule. The issues the team is having with clears will be cleaned up before the opener in two weeks.
