Marquette Men’s Soccer Settles For Draw; Keeps Milwaukee Cup

“Settles for” probably isn’t even the right phrase. “Is forced into” is probably more accurate.

After 110 minutes of action at Valley Fields on Wednesday night, the ball finally came to a rest, the shots stopped, the fouls stopped, the cards stopped, and the score was 3-3. No one would have expected that to be the score just 80 minutes earlier, when Marquette was carrying around a 3-0 lead, but UW-Milwaukee equalized in the 86th minute on an own goal and the two teams remained scoreless through two overtime periods to keep it at a draw.

Thanks to the draw, though, Marquette maintains possession of the Milwaukee Cup for the third straight year.
