On Jan. 26, The Hall fell to the Golden Eagles, 62-43, at the Al McGuire Center.

The Hall was also out-rebounded 54-to-25. Espinoza-Hunter led the Pirates with 13 points to go with four rebounds and two steals. Park-Lane had 11 points, five assists and two steals.
SCOUTING MARQUETTE
Marquette is coming off a stellar 23-11 season in 2021-22, which includes a 13-7 mark in BIG EAST Conference play. The fifth-seeded Golden Eagles routed fourth-seeded DePaul by 20 in the BIG EAST Tournament quarterfinals before being bounced from the event by top-seeded UConn in the semifinals. Marquette's season came to an end with a third-round loss to Toledo in the WNIT.
This year, the Golden Eagles were picked to finish sixth in the 11-team league according to the preseason coaches' poll. Senior Jordan King was named to the Preseason All-BIG EAST Team. They return King and starters Liza Karlen and Chloe Marotta. Gone are Team All-BIG EAST forward Lauren Van Kleunen and guard Karissa McLaughlin.
Marquette enters this weekend with a 6-1 overall record.
