PREVIEW: Marquette looks for first ever win over UConn to advance to BIG EAST Tournament finals

UNCASVILLE, Conn. – The Marquette women’s basketball team will look to continue its three-game winning streak Sunday afternoon when they face No. 7 UConn in the BIG EAST Tournament semifinals.

“It’s going to be a complete switch of what the game will feel like. I mean UConn, their defense continues to be taken up to another level as they get all their bodies back,” Marquette head coach Megan Duffy said following the win over DePaul. “Some of the easy baskets we got will not be there tomorrow, we understand that.”

Marquette enters the afternoon, coming off a 105-85 win over DePaul Saturday afternoon.
