Marquette Women’s Basketball’s 44th season begins the dawn of a new era led by a familiar face, Cara Consuegra. She was a Marquette assistant coach from 2004-2011 and is returning to lead the Golden Eagles as the seventh head women’s basketball coach in program history.
“I think it’s great coming back here because there is a sense of familiarity,” Consuegra said before the season. “I understand the institution, I understand the values here and I know a lot of the same people who were here during my time as an assistant, so I think those are all things I can take with me coming back.
