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 […]

That 2026 season opener against #20 Michigan just keeps getting closer and closer for YOUR Marquette men’s lacrosse team. With that in mind, it’s probably a good idea if we take a look at the roster that head coach Jake Richard has for his second season in charge. First up: The returning guys from last […]

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 […]

The IWLCA released the preseason top 25 poll for the 2026 women’s lacrosse season on Monday, and when paired with the Big East preseason poll on Wednesday, there’s no surprise that Marquette is nowhere in sight. It’s hard to be in the national top 25 when you’re #5 in your own conference…. although it seems […]

In the past, when writing a recap, I’ve talked about the difficulty of trying to determine what part of a game that went to overtime was actually important to discuss. From a certain point of view, nothing about the game in regulation matters because the contest was decided in the overtime session because the two […]

The Big East announced the result of the preseason poll for the 2026 women’s lacrosse season on Wednesday afternoon, and I can’t say it’s particularly fantastic news for YOUR Marquette Golden Eagles. Meredith Black’s team was picked to finish fifth by the league’s coaches, earning 16 points in the balloting. Georgetown is at #4 with […]

We hit another signpost on the way to the start of the 2026 college lacrosse season on Monday when Inside Lacrosse released the preseason edition of the KANE media top 20 poll. While 2025 ended on an upswing for Marquette, wrapping up the regular season at 7-6 and beating Denver in the regular season for […]

Going into the December 29th loss to St. John’s, Marquette was sitting at #56 in the NET. The loss knocked them to #66. Beating Villanova got Marquette back to #54. Losing to Seton Hall didn’t really affect anything in that regard, but losing to Georgetown in what BartTorvik.com’s Game Scores says is the worst performance […]
