Earlier this season, in game #2 of the Marquette women’s lacrosse schedule, the Golden Eagles made a hastily scheduled trip out to Mount Pleasant in Michigan to face Central Michigan. They were set to play the Chippewas in Milwaukee later in the year, but due to a COVID issue with Notre Dame, the two sides were left without a game, and they decided to play each other.
It was a closely contested game with CMU outshooting Marquette 29-27 at the final horn and getting the 11-10 win after the Golden Eagles couldn’t tie the game up in the final three minutes.
