After the disaster that was Wednesday night’s second quarter against Villanova, Marquette women’s basketball is now 7-6 in Big East play. With seven games left to go in conference play, Marquette is currently in sixth place in the standings, which means that they would be the best team that gets put in a game in the tripleheader on the first day of the Big East tournament.
It’s reasonable to think that the men’s conference tournament doesn’t have much of an impact on the NCAA selection committee..... but the women’s tournament ends nearly a week before Selection Sunday.
