Marquette women’s soccer were overwhelmed in its Big East opener.
Butler outshot Marquette 17-5, putting 11 of those shots on target compared to Marquette’s one. The Bulldogs also earned seven corner kicks — one of which they converted into a goal — while the Golden Eagles did not tally any. Marquette committed 11 fouls and went offside five times.
It all culminated into the Golden Eagles’ sixth loss of the season as Marquette (3-6-2, 0-1 Big East) fell 1-0 to the Butler Bulldogs (6-2-1, 1-0) Sunday afternoon at the Bud and Jackie Sellick Bowl in Indianapolis, Indiana.
