IT IS ONCE AGAIN TIME FOR LACROSSE! Head coach Meredith Black and the Golden Eagles get their season started coming up on Friday afternoon, and they will be trying to find a way to improve on their 2025 campaign. To be clear, 2025 was not a bad season for Marquette, far from it. Their 10-6 […]

Here’s your deciding factor for how you want to feel about Marquette’s 78-61 victory over Providence on Wednesday night at the McGuire Center: How do you feel about Providence going on a 30-16 run across more than 11 minutes of game time to gut a 24 point Marquette lead down to just 10 points? What […]

Well, let’s start here: Marquette is going to be wearing pink uniforms on Wednesday night for breast cancer awareness reasons. Here’s Lee Volker demoing the uniforms: And so we move from the facts of the situation to a slightly unbelievable note: Marquette’s road win over Georgetown on Sunday goes into the books as one of […]

#1 — How does head coach Jake Richard guide his team through what is clearly going to be a mentally and/or emotionally difficult season? Back in September, Marquette men’s lacrosse lost Scott Michaud and Noah Snyder as both young men were killed in a traffic accident near campus. Two more players — they’ve never been […]

For a moment, I was looking at this week’s Big East basketball schedules and it was starting to look like maaaybe there weren’t really that many intriguing games on deck. Then I realized that we’re past the halfway point or further even for everyone in the league, and things are Starting To Get Important relative […]

GOAL #1 for Marquette women’s basketball against Georgetown on Sunday was achieved 65 seconds in as Lee Volker hit a three-pointer for the first points of the game. That made the score 3-0 in favor of the Golden Eagles, and by default, this meant that MU would not fall behind 19-0 against the Hoyas as […]

#1 — Is there another record setting offensive season coming from someone on this roster? When the sun rose on the 2017 season, Marquette’s single season points record was 46, set back in 2015 by Claire Costanza. Julianna Shearer became the first MU player to ever put up 50 in a season that year, and […]

Let’s put some numbers on the sense of things in the air since Marquette women’s basketball has looked sketchy at best over the last five games. Thanks to the ever popular BartTorvik.com data filtering system, we can say that over the last five contests, Marquette has been playing like the #101 team in the country. […]

With 2:29 left in the first half, Royce Parham hit a three-pointer for YOUR Marquette Golden Eagles. It was the team’s eighth three-point make on 11 attempts to that point of the game, and combine that with Seton Hall shooting just 43% from the field heading into Parham’s make, Marquette found themselves up 37-28 at […]

End of the first quarter: Marquette 26, DePaul 15. The Golden Eagles didn’t look particularly great for the first 10 minutes but when the Blue Demons shoot 38% and turn it over twice, you don’t ask questions and you take your 11 point margin. Halftime: Marquette 49, DePaul 27. That’s a 23-12 quarter for the […]

There’s 12 new faces on the Marquette women’s lacrosse roster for the 2026 season. All 12 are freshmen, and some are going to have a better shot than others to pop up in head coach Meredith Black’s regular rotation this season. Let’s take a minute or two (or nine?) to see what the Golden Eagles […]

This is about as straightforward as recaps get because there’s not much in the way of storytelling here. Marquette ripped Creighton straight in half in the first half with an 18-0 run to turn a 23-16 advantage into a 41-16 demolition derby with 3:27 left to go before halftime. The Golden Eagles maxed out the […]

Full faith and credit to Marquette to locking down Butler in the closing moments last time out. Sure, letting a 19-0 second quarter run go to waste as they frittered away a 14 point lead at the start of the fourth quarter down to getting lucky after committing a five second violation and Lee Volker […]

The way I see it, there’s one truly “hey, look at that, that’s Must See TV” type game in the Big East this week. The sad part is is that it is a non-conference game because Geno Auriemma is an absolute sicko for scheduling like this in the tail end of January. The extra sad […]

I can’t stop staring at the fact that Marquette went on a 19-0 run across the final 7:30 of the second quarter at Hinkle Fieldhouse on Sunday and also needed to hit free throws in the final 20 seconds to secure a 64-60 win over Butler. That 19-0 run goes into the record books as […]

Obviously it was good news that Marquette bounced back from two of their worst performances of the season to get a win against St. John’s back on Wednesday. Winning a game = good, full stop. Now. Marquette was not exactly inspiring anyone with confidence through that 40 minutes of basketball, especially not anyone who saw […]

I think the quickest and easiest way to recap this game is to point out the expansion and contraction of Butler’s lead over Marquette, seeing as the Golden Eagles only ever led 2-0 on Friday night at Hinkle Fieldhouse. And so, after a 13-2 run in the first five minutes, Butler led 13-4. Marquette tied […]
