Mikki Easter made seven saves as Marquette women’s soccer got outshot 15-6 on Thursday night, but physics is a harsh mistress and so Marquette lost 1-0 to Providence. The Golden Eagles are now 5-7-3 overall and 2-3-1 in Big East play, while the Friars move to 3-0-3 in the league.
It’s a pretty familiar story at this point: Marquette couldn’t muster much in the way of offensive pressure on that end, Providence was able to keep the ball mostly on their offensive half of the field, they kept knocking, and eventually things worked out and they scored a goal.
