Marquette women’s soccer suffered an awful loss in their first Big East game of the year back on Thursday when a handball call with just seconds left led to a free kick goal from just barely outside the box to break a 0-0 tie in Butler’s favor. On Sunday, the Golden Eagles were in action out in Pennsylvania against Villanova with an eye on bouncing back from that loss, and well, it didn’t start well.
In the 20th minute, Katrina Wetherell tried to keep a Villanova attacker from making a play on a ball passed right in front of the Marquette net.
