The women’s lacrosse team fell for the first time at the Valley Fields dome this season after a 17-11 loss against Denver.
“We are pissed off after this loss,” Marquette senior attacker Charlotte McGuire said.
With the loss, the Golden Eagles (9-6, 5-2 BIG EAST) are tied for third in the conference with Denver (10-4, 5-2 BIG EAST).
Marquette out-muscled Denver in the draw circle, 22-8. Junior midfielder Grace Gabriel had a career high of 13 draw controls, breaking her previous record of 81 and setting it at 93. Despite Marquette’s success in the circle, the Golden Eagles had 16 turnovers in the first half.
