Can’t do better than first place, that’s for sure.
That’s where Marquette women’s soccer stands in Big East play after snagging a 2-1 win over DePaul on Thursday night. Was that the Big East opener for both teams, and therefore whoever won was going to be in a tie for first place? Mind your business.
This was not, at the end of 90 minutes, the world’s most thrilling game. To wit: Marquette scored on the third and fourth shots of the match, and those goals came in the 21st and 28th minutes. No, not Marquette’s third and fourth shots, the combined third and fourth shots.
