Marquette women’s lacrosse entered Saturday afternoon’s matchup with No. 10 Denver with a chance to share the BIG EAST regular season title.
However, the Pioneers had other plans defeating the Golden Eagles 18-9 at Peter Barton Lacrosse Stadium for the out-right BIG EAST regular season title.
The Golden Eagles came out strong in the opening frame, ending the quarter on a 3-0 run to take a 4-2 lead into the second quarter. Senior midfielder Lydia Foust found the back of the net twice in the quarter. In addition, first-year attacker/midfielder Meg Bireley and senior attacker Shea Garcia scored in the frame.
