How much do you want to care about Marquette’s defense giving up 12 goals to Mercer? It was 15-6 at halftime, 17-11 going into the fourth quarter. Really, it was just that 15 minutes that was a problem, giving up five goals on 14 shots and seven on frame. All three of those numbers were […]
With a NET ranking of #69 on Monday morning, we know that Marquette women’s basketball is not going to the NCAA tournament as an at-large qualifier this season. We can hash out the moment when it became very obvious that was not going to happen this season, but with Cara Consuegra’s Golden Eagles eliminated from […]
I told you when I made my Big East honors picks last week, the league LOOOOOOVES getting these awards press releases out as soon as they can. That’s why we got the All-Big East Teams announced on Sunday morning, about 12 hours after the regular season ended. The big news for you, the discerning and […]
Kind of a short day of basketball today with just 22 games on national television, but the volume is made up for with quality. 19 of the 22 games on deck for today are part of a conference tournament one way or another, and 12 of them have an NCAA tournament autobid on the line. […]
We had to wait for the very last play of the very last regular season game of the 2025-26 Big East men’s basketball calendar to finally lock all 11 seeds of the conference tournament into place, but as of midnight on Saturday, the Big East tournament bracket is set! The final outcome of Georgetown defeating […]
If you didn’t get to Fiserv for men’s basketball on Saturday but instead went out to Valley Fields for some lacrosse, you got treated to a fireworks show. Five different Golden Eagles — including defenseman Brady Nicholas!! — posted a hat trick as Marquette men’s lacrosse threw together a 21-12 victory over Mercer. It’s the […]
Okay, so this Big East tournament quarterfinal game tipped off right about at the 2 hour mark of the men’s basketball game. I don’t know if you saw that one, but uh, there was a lot going on at the end of that one. This was my experience with finding out what was going on […]
When Solo Ball hit a three-pointer to put #4 UConn up 9-5 with just over three minutes gone in Saturday’s Marquette men’s basketball regular season finale, I thought to myself, “well, Marquette’s in trouble here.” Ball has not been shooting the three well this season, and hitting his first attempt of the game felt like […]
I had no idea that we were on the precipice of a bit of history for the last couple of Marquette women’s lacrosse games. Powered by a seven point day from Dani Serrano and a six goal day from Tess Osburn, YOUR Marquette Golden Eagles secured a 19-9 win over Youngstown State on Friday afternoon. […]

FIFTY GAMES. That’s a lot of basketball, and it’s all getting piped straight into your eyeballs on national television today. The women’s games on national TV today are highlighted by the semifinals in the Atlantic 10, the ACC, the Big Ten, and the SEC. What’s not to like about eight elimination games on TV today?? […]

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 […]

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, […]
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 […]
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. […]
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, […]
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 […]

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. […]
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 […]
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, […]
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 […]
