Officially, the transfer portal for men’s basketball doesn’t open up until the day after the national championship game. However, that doesn’t stop anyone from making an announcement or a declaration that they will be in the portal once it opens. It makes sense: Get the word out that you’re available, and no sense waiting until […]
I want to say that this mid-week Big East game doesn’t matter all that much to Marquette women’s lacrosse. It’s against a ranked opponent, it’s on the road, it’s against the preseason favorite in the league, it’s against the conference rival that Marquette has never beaten…. there’s a lot going on here that can all […]
Cara Consuegra’s 2026-27 roster is changing again. We already saw that Charia Smith will be departing the program with one year of eligibility remaining, and now we have another player doing the same. On Monday, Aryelle Stevens published a post on Instagram to announce that she will be departing Marquette with her degree in hand. […]
In the preview for Saturday’s Marquette/Xavier women’s lacrosse game, I pointed out 1) that Marquette has been having some trouble maintaining offensive consistency as games have gotten into high leverage moments and 2) Xavier’s defense has been pretty stingy this season. Both of those things seem to have played a part in Saturday’s 10-7 Marquette […]
YOUR Marquette Golden Eagles men’s lacrosse team is 1-0 in Big East play, and as somewhat accordant with team tradition, they did it in the most dramatic way possible. We could get lost in the details of Providence going up 4-1 in the first eight minutes, or Marquette cutting the lead back to just one […]
On Friday morning, the Marquette athletic department put out a very standard issue boilerplate press release announcing that the university has re-upped with Nike and Jordan Brand for all the uniforming and clothing needs for the Golden Eagles. Marquette Athletics announced on Friday morning the renewal of its partnership with Jordan Brand, Nike, Inc. and […]
We’re into the home stretch of the 2026 Marquette men’s lacrosse season as the only thing left to do is knock out the five games of Big East play starting on Saturday. In fact, let’s get the details on that game out of the way. Big East Game #1: at Providence Friars (4-6, 0-0 Big […]
There’s a trend emerging for Marquette women’s lacrosse, or maybe a couple of trends, and the biggest question facing the Golden Eagles and head coach Meredith Black going into this weekend may be which one is more important in terms of finding a solution. The reason why it’s a couple of trends is because we […]
As we inch closer towards putting together our Player Reviews (I wait until the NCAA tournament is over for the most accurate stat rankings!), there’s still some unpacking of what happened in the 2025-26 Marquette men’s basketball season. In today’s case, we’re going to look at some things that we thought were pretty established ideas […]
We got some big Marquette volleyball schedule news on Monday afternoon as the AVCA announced an addition to their 2026 First Serve event. In the process of adding a fourth day to the First Serve event that was already set for Fiserv Forum, the AVCA announced that there will be two Big East-themed matches in […]
It seemed like things were pretty solid on Nigel James, Adrien Stevens, and Royce Parham returning to Marquette men’s basketball for the 2026-27 season coming out of the Big East tournament. James made it very directly clear about his position on the topic after being named Big East Freshman of the Year, while Adrien Stevens […]
For the first time all season — there have only been four previous home games, part of this is not my fault — I was actually available to make my way down to Valley Fields to see Marquette women’s lacrosse in action on Monday afternoon. Out of the gate, this seemed like a great choice […]
ONE MORE DAY OF BASKETBALL! Because of the one day offset of the men’s and women’s basketball tournaments, we get EIGHT MORE GAMES with a spot in the Sweet 16 on the docket for the day, all in the women’s NCAA tournament. ESPN varies things from the way they ran them on Sunday, as we […]
The 2025-26 Marquette women’s basketball season came to an end on Selection Sunday when the Golden Eagles were not included in the WBIT or the WNIT fields. That means MU’s last game of the year was actually back on March 7, when they lost 57-44 to Creighton in the quarterfinals of the Big East tournament. […]
The question is whether Marquette will grow from their narrow loss to #23 Georgetown or allow letting that game slip away from them carry over emotionally into this game, just two days later, much less the rest of their season. At this point of the year, sitting at 5-4 through nine games and 0-1 in […]
You know the old adage about how basketball is a game of runs? You can easily make the same statement about lacrosse. At the end of the day, the team that’s able to put together the most stretches of consecutive goals is probably going to be your winner. If “most number of stretches” isn’t the […]
For three quarters on Saturday afternoon at Valley Fields, Marquette women’s lacrosse was in a duel with #23 Georgetown. In fact, if you wanted to, you could argue that if the Golden Eagles didn’t have the nationally ranked Hoyas on the ropes when they held them without a goal for the middle 17 minutes of […]
Are you prepared to see 16 teams punch their tickets to the Sweet 16 today?? With the women’s basketball tournament wrapping up the Round of 64 on Saturday, that gives us eight Round of 32 games for both the women and the men today. Even better: The women’s tournament is starting a new game on […]
Welcome to Saturday of the first weekend of the NCAA basketball tournament! I’ve got good news and bad news for you. The bad news is that because this is the Round of 32 for the men’s basketball tournament, there is only one game on at a time between 11am and 5:10pm when TNT gets Houston/Texas […]
Welcome to Saturday of the first weekend of the NCAA basketball tournament! I’ve got good news and bad news for you. The bad news is that because this is the Round of 32 for the men’s basketball tournament, there is only one game on at a time between 11am and 5:10pm when TNT gets Houston/Texas […]
You might remember that back in mid-December, I penned an article on this website titled “Is Marquette Getting Worse?” That was published in the wake of Marquette men’s basketball losing 96-76 to Wisconsin on December 6th and just one day before the Golden Eagles took a 79-59 loss on the road against Purdue. The ultimate […]
It’s been a minute since we’ve had a Marquette men’s lacrosse game on the board to talk about since the Golden Eagles last played a mid-week game against Utah and then took last weekend off. There’s been so much going on that I actually had to say “hey, what exactly happened in that Utah game?” […]
THIRTY-TWO NCAA BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT GAMES TODAY! It’s the second day of the first round in the men’s tournament as we finish up cutting the field down to 32 teams. The women’s tournament wrapped up the First Four last night, so it’s their first day in the Round of 64. What does that mean for you, […]
The Big East opener is coming up this weekend for Marquette women’s lacrosse, and with that in mind, we should probably see what everyone has been up to since the start of February, huh? Before we get a look at the league, let’s stop off and fit in the specific details of Saturday’s conference opener. […]
IT’S THE MOOOOOOOOOOOST WONDERFUL TIIIIIIIIIIIIIIME OF THE YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR Hell yeah, we made it back to the opening weekend of the NCAA tournament! Only the men’s basketball tournament is in full swing today with 16 games, the women’s tournament doesn’t hit their first round full stride until tomorrow. That still gives us the 16 men’s games […]
