Marquette bounces back in Big East play with win over Butler

Marquette women’s basketball got back in the win column in Big East play as it took down Butler 67-46 Sunday afternoon at the Al McGuire Center.

“Our team came out with a lot of great effort,” junior guard Rose Nkumu said.

With the win, the Golden Eagles improve to 6-0 at home on the season.

“It’s really great to be back on the court after a week off for finals, our team has been locked in to their studies so it was good to be here playing a game,” Duffy said. “Butler is much improved from last year with their new coaching staff and I thought we had to be really on our toes today to be good defensively.
