AGAINST MARQUETTE
Seton Hall and Marquette will renew their rivalry on Jan. 15 in Milwaukee. The Golden Eagles own a 20-11 all-time series lead and have won three in a row including a sweep of the home-and-home series last season. The Pirates have never won in Milwaukee, but are 3-0 on the road this season. Marquette is 8-1 at home.
SCOUTING MARQUETTE
Cara Consuegra will coach her first year at the helm at Marquette after spending 13 seasons at Charlotte. The Golden Eagles went 23-9 overall and tied for third in BIG EAST play with an 11-7 league mark. They made their third NCAA Tournament appearance in the last four years but fell in the first round to Ole Miss. Marquette looks to fill the roles of its leading scorers, Liza Karlen, Jordan King, and Mackenzie Hare, from last year.
Heading into this season, Marquette was picked to finish 10th in the 11-team BIG EAST according to the conference’s coaches’ poll.
The Golden Eagles have exceeded expectations so far this year, finishing the non-conference portion of its schedule with an 8-3 record and winning three of their first five BIG EAST Conference contests. Marquette defeated both Butler and Villanova at home, and went to Chicago to rout DePaul by 19 points. The Golden Eagles have found a scoring lift from Skylar Forbes, whose 15.8 points per game currently ranks eighth-most in the BIG EAST. Lee Volker and Halle Vice are also averaging in double-figures in scoring.
Marquette is coming off a 64-59 victory over Villanova on Saturday. A tall team, the Golden Eagles currently lead the BIG EAST with 40.6 rebounds and 4.75 blocks per contest.
