Marquette Men’s Lacrosse Preview: vs Mercer

It is time to apply all the lessons that Marquette men’s lacrosse has learned to this point of the season. Marquette is 2-3 on the year, with all three losses coming in relatively competitive contests against ranked opponents. Maybe the final margin doesn’t look so hot, but each time, the Golden Eagles were running with […]

Unscientific Predictions: 2025-26 Big East Postseason Awards

There are five Big East men’s basketball games left to go. Creighton drew the straw for the final bye spot in the schedule, so their 20 game conference slate is already over. In one week’s time, the first round of the conference tournament will already be over and the quarterfinals will be underway. And so, […]

Three Golden Eagles Earn All-Big East Honors

The Big East announced the postseason awards for the 2025-26 women’s basketball season on Thursday, March 5th, in advance of the conference tournament beginning on Friday. Three Marquette players are amongst the women honored by the league. Skylar Forbes and Halle Vice are both unanimous picks for the 10 woman All-Big East First Team, while […]

Marquette Women’s Lacrosse Preview: at Youngstown State

You’re going to see that Youngstown State is winless in five tries this season in a moment, so keep in mind that this is a big test contest for Marquette women’s lacrosse. The last two times out, the Golden Eagles had what could be easily considered to be winnable lacrosse games in front of them. […]

Night-Night: Marquette 78, Providence 56

There were a lot of factors to give all of us Marquette fans a bit of nerves going into Wednesday night’s game at Providence. There’s the fact that Marquette had no business beating Providence in Milwaukee earlier this season before succeeding in overtime, there’s the fact that Marquette looked absolutely horrible on Sunday against DePaul, […]

Marquette Volleyball Announces Additions of Emi & Tani Juric

On Monday, Marquette volleyball head coach Tom Mendoza announced two new additions to his 2026 roster. Emi and Tani Juric will be joining the Golden Eagles for the coming fall season. As far as I can tell — this information is not in the official team press release — the pair of sisters from Slovenia […]

Big East What To Watch: The Finale

With one regular season week left to go, there’s an awful lot left to be decided in terms of seeding for the 2026 Big East men’s basketball conference tournament. UConn has a half game lead on St. John’s with the two teams tied in the loss column in terms of the regular season title race. […]

The 2026 Big East Women’s Basketball Tournament Bracket Is Set!

If I’m reading my 2025-26 Big East women’s basketball standings correctly, we had to officially wait for UConn to beat St. John’s 85-49 at Madison Square Garden to lock in the completed conference tournament bracket. That bracket was made official a little bit after 8pm Central time on Sunday, and so now we know the […]

Marquette Women’s Basketball Clinches #4 Seed With Win Over Providence

I’ll be honest with you: I didn’t watch much of Sunday evening’s regular season finale for Marquette women’s basketball. That’s the downside of the Golden Eagles tipping off against Providence at 4:30pm Central time, 90 minutes after the men’s team started off against DePaul at Fiserv Forum. As a season ticket holder for both squads, […]

A New Movie: Jacksonville 15, Marquette 13

Last time Marquette women’s lacrosse took to the field, they dug themselves into a 4-0 hole and never got their way back out of it. For just over seven minutes on Sunday, it looked like we were seeing the same thing from the Golden Eagles as they fell behind Jacksonville 4-1 and had committed two […]

The Quick & The Dirty: DePaul 62, Marquette 51

You guys ever watch The Martian? The Matt Damon movie based on the Andy Weir book? So, this mission to Mars gets emergency evacuated because of a dust storm, but a piece of equipment busts free and knocks Mark Watney unconscious and disables his suit, so his crew leaves without him. Everyone thinks he’s dead, […]

Danny Olsen Wins 200m Gold & Rebreaks Marquette Records

Marquette track & field left the 2026 Big East Indoor Championships with a conference champion! Danny Olsen rebroke the school record in the 200 meters that he set during Friday’s preliminaries, running the championship race in a time of 21.25 seconds. It is Marquette’s second straight 200m indoor championship, as Aaron Hughes won the race […]

Marquette Women’s Basketball Preview: at Providence

Let’s keep this simple, shall we? The Big East did us all a huge favor on Friday by advising us exactly what’s been settled for the conference tournament seeding heading into the final day of the 2025-26 regular season. UConn is already locked at #1, Villanova is locked at #2, and Providence — which happens […]

Hey, They’re Pretty Good: #4 Harvard 19, Marquette 10

With 6:43 left in the first quarter at Chaminade High School on Long Island, YOUR Marquette Golden Eagles men’s lacrosse team got a third goal of the game from Tucker Mullen and took a 5-1 lead on #4 Harvard. That margin held as the clock went under six minutes to go, then five, then four. […]

Marquette Women’s Lacrosse Preview: at Jacksonville

I feel like Marquette’s trip to Tempe has to be a wake up call for the Golden Eagles. Marquette women’s lacrosse got caught on their back foot for the first 13 minutes against Arizona State back on Tuesday afternoon, falling behind 4-0 in the first eight minutes of the game and not scoring until there […]

Danny Olsen Breaks Two Marquette Track & Field Records

If you break two school records in one day, that’s a pretty good meet. For Marquette’s Danny Olsen, doing that at the Big East Indoor Track & Field Championships is an even better day. On Friday, Olsen got his day started with a 47.39 in the 400 meters prelims in order to qualify for Saturday’s […]
