Women’s Lacrosse Faces Another Loss
The Golden Eagles (5-10, 1-3 Big East) fell to Georgetown 18-11 Saturday at Valley Fields in their only game of the week.
- Marquette committed 26 penalties in the game and lost the turnover battle 18-10.
“It’s just frustrating because we know what we’re capable of,” senior midfielder Josie Kropp said. “It’s tough to see Marquette beat Marquette, we beat ourselves. We’re gonna take the good from the game, and learn from the bad.”
- Kropp set the single-season draw control record (120).
“I’m not surprised one bit and I’m so proud of her,” Marquette head coach Meredith Black said. “She’s worked really hard to get that accolade.”
