The Marquette women’s basketball team (4-2) looks to bounce back in its BIG EAST opener against the Xavier Musketeers Friday evening at the Al McGuire Center after falling to No. 20 Georgia 70-45 Saturday.
As has been the trend for the last three games, the first quarter was sloppy for Marquette which helped Georgia dominate on both sides of the ball. Graduate student Jenna Staiti hit a 3-pointer in the third quarter to spark a 14-2 run for Georgia and the Lady Bulldogs took control the rest of the way,leading as much as 27 points at one point.
