I think the message for Marquette men’s lacrosse right now has to be “Play a full 60 minutes of lacrosse.”
The Golden Eagles are 2-4 on the year through six games with a goal differential of -1. Four losses by a combined total of eight goals. One bad 6-2 quarter against #15 Jacksonville meant a loss. A bad 11 minutes against Utah turned a 6-5 lead into a 9-7 deficit in a one goal defeat. A bad eight minutes against #16 Michigan meant Marquette went from leading 5-3 to trailing 8-6. Marquette led 10-7 midway through the third quarter against Drexel and lost 11-10 in overtime after giving up the tying goal with just under five minutes to go in regulation.
