Well, the good news is that Frank Pelaez and Marquette women’s soccer came away from their first weekend of action this fall with the best expected record of 1-1-0. That’s what happens when you open with two on the road and the first one is against the #16 team in the country.
However, the Golden Eagles went about acquiring their goals in their 2-1 win over Central Michigan in maybe the most awkward way possible.
The first half of soccer in Mount Pleasant was, to keep it brief, not good. Neither side managed a shot at all first nearly the entirety of the first 20 minutes of the game with CMU breaking through first just seconds before that barrier.
