If I had told you on New Year’s Morning that Marquette was going to have the following conditions for their game later that day on the road against Xavier, what would your reaction have been? It’s not a rosy projection, is it? But thanks to a 14-0 run led by six points from Halle Vice […]

The missed layups were the problem on Monday night against St. John’s, but there’s an argument to be made that Marquette women’s basketball had a lot bigger problems than that against the Red Storm. As I was starting to put together this preview, I couldn’t help but notice that the game against the Red Storm […]

As I watched Seton Hall blast past Marquette in the final three minutes with a 13-0 run to flip a seven point MU advantage to a six point SHU victory, I thought to myself, “oh, right, this team hasn’t gotten a chance from their terrible non-conference performance to learn how to win games when it […]

We’re officially out of the Christmas break by the time this hits the internet airwaves on Sunday night. Big East women’s basketball had a four game slate on Sunday, three league games and Providence making the trip down to South Carolina, so that made the end of break pretty official. There’s another two women’s games […]

It’s nothing but Big East games for Marquette women’s basketball from here on out. They wrapped up non-conference play on December 20th with an 86-43 victory over Division 2 Truman State, just three days after losing 89-53 to #1 UConn. Yes, that does mean Marquette started Big East play before finishing non-conference play, which is […]

DID YOU KNOW? Marquette women’s basketball is already THREE games into Big East play? It’s true! The Golden Eagles started off Big East action by shoving DePaul and Butler into a trash can back in early December, and then followed that up by getting shoved into a trash can by #1 UConn last week to […]

On Saturday morning, I had some free time, and I said to myself, hey, let’s put together a preview publishing schedule for Marquette lacrosse. It’s been a minute since Meredith Black announced her team’s 2026 slate, so I can at least start putting together a framework for timing even though there’s been no press release […]

Okay, the Marquette men’s basketball game against Creighton is now under 10 minutes to go, so it actually makes sense to start writing this recap. I waited til now because, in theory, there was an awful lot of basketball left to be played, so it was mathematically possible that something different would start happening. Nope, […]

With just a touch less than three hours to go before tipoff in Omaha on Saturday night, Marquette men’s basketball announced that junior guard Zaide Lowery did not travel with the team for personal reasons. As a result of not being in Nebraska, he is obviously out for the game against Creighton. Okay, let’s take […]

It started with Kennedi Perkins starting in place of Jaidynn Mason, which includes Mason not even being present on the bench for the game with an illness.

There’s just 16 nationally televised college basketball games today. That’s not the total number of games, there’s 65 men’s games across the country and 85 women’s games. Most of it’s on a streaming platform, that’s all. That includes both of Marquette’s teams, by the way. In fact, were it not for a big pile of […]

I have a mission for Cara Consuegra’s team. It’s a pretty simple one. Beat Truman State by more points than the margin of Wednesday’s 89-53 loss to UConn. All due respect to the Bulldogs, but they are a sub-.500 Division 2 team. A Division 1 team with their eyes on an NCAA tournament bid should […]
