DePaul visits Thursday at 12 p.m. CT, Butler at 1 p.m. CT on Sunday
The Marquette University women's soccer team (4-2-0, 2-2-0 BIG EAST) hosts a pair of critical BIG EAST Conference matches this week at Valley Fields.
The Golden Eagles welcome DePaul (3-2-0, 2-2-0 BIG EAST) at 12 p.m. CT on Thursday, March 25 before hosting first-place Butler (7-1-0, 4-1-0 BIG EAST) on Sunday, March 28 at 1 p.m. CT.
This week marks the start of the second half of the home-and-home BIG EAST schedule, with the top two finishers in each division earning bids to the conference tournament. MU is currently tied for second with DePaul at 2-2-0, but owns the tiebreaker courtesy of a 2-0 victory against the Blue Demons on March 7. Butler tops the Midwest Division with a 4-1-0 record and defeated the Golden Eagles 1-0 on March 11 with a late second-half goal.
No. 15/18 Georgetown leads the East Division with a 6-0-0 record and has won all eight of its matches in 2021. Butler is receiving votes in both of the national polls.
Marquette is 3-0-0 this season at home, most recently defeating Xavier 3-1 last week. The Golden Eagles have been able to take advantage of the controlled environment in the dome, especially offensively, outscoring opponents 9-3.
Freshman Elsi Twombly and senior Kylie Sprecher lead the team with seven points, with each player finding the back of the next on three occasions this season. The duo is currently tied for eighth in the league in points per game (1.17).
Newcomer Lauren Schill has assumed the starting role in goal and is third in the conference in saves per game (4.0).
