It’s time for Marquette women’s basketball to start avenging some losses.
Last weekend, Marquette advanced their Big East record to 6-3 on the season with a pair of relatively easy road wins over Xavier and Butler. Good news all around, as it leaves the Golden Eagles in fourth place in the league with nine of their 20 conference games played.
However, you can’t help but look at Marquette’s record to this point and ask yourself how close they were to being 8-1 and tied with DePaul for second place. Their road loss to Creighton is, at this point of the calendar, pretty much explainable as the Bluejays continue to tear it up and point themselves toward the NCAA tournament.
