Marquette women’s soccer is finally in the win column after defeating the Drake Bulldogs 2-1 Sunday afternoon in Des Moines, Iowa.
The two goals to give the victory came from some unlikely sources. In the 31st minute Abby Hess found senior Leah Celarek, who scored her first goal since Oct. 6, 2016. It was one of three shots on goal Sunday for Celarek and just her second career goal.
The other goal came in the 77th minute from freshman Alyssa Bombacino. The strike from 15 yards out was her first career goal.
Prior to Sunday’s match, all of Marquette’s scoring this season came from redshirt junior Carrie Madden.
