MILWAUKEE, WIS. – The Providence College women's basketball team fell to Marquette, 85-55, on Jan. 31 at the Al McGuire Center in Milwaukee, Wis. The Friars led by five (16-11) after the first quarter, but were unable to recover from a difficult second quarter during which the Golden Eagles posted a 24-7 scoring advantage and claimed a 35-23 lead at the half.

• Marquette started the game with a 6-0 advantage before Mary Baskerville (Enfield, Conn.) got the Friars on the board at the 8:56 mark.
• The Golden Eagles extended their lead to 8-2, forcing a timeout by the Friars.
• A 13-0 offensive burst gave the Friars a 15-8 lead with 1:10 on the clock.
• Marquette was held scoreless for 5:28 of the quarter until Selena Lott hit a pair of free throws with 37-seconds left (15-10).
• The Friars went to the break with a 16-11 lead, having out-scored the Golden Eagles 14-3 over the final 6:05 of the frame.
SECOND QUARTER:
• The Golden Eagles took a 17-16 lead with a 6-0 spurt to start the second quarter.
• Chanell Williams (Bronx, N.Y.) halted the run with driving lay-up on the left side of the key.
• Marquette responded with a 7-0 run to take a 24-18 lead, but it was Williams again on the drive to get the Friars on the board at the 4:31 mark.
• At the media timeout (4:04), the Golden Eagles held a 24-20 edge on the scoreboard.
• Marquette used a 10-0 run to take a 34-20 lead with 15-seconds remaining in the half.

• The Golden Eagles out-scored the Friars 24-7 in the second quarter on 71.4-percent shooting from the field (10-14).
