Women’s basketball drops first home game of the season

After earning wins in its previous two games of their three-game home stand, the Marquette women’s basketball team entered Sunday’s contest against Villanova looking for a sweep.

However, the Wildcats had other plans as they handed the Golden Eagles their first loss of the season at home by a score of 58-55.

“I was just a little disappointed with this afternoon’s game. I didn’t think we put a full 40 minutes, we knew it was going to be kind of grind it out type of game and we needed to be a little bit better really on both sides of the ball,” head coach Megan Duffy said.
