Finals Run

The 5-2 Marquette Golden Eagles conclude the first phase of the young season with a tough, two-game stretch leading into finals week on campus. Coming off of a confidence-building win over SDSU (which was good scheduling on the part of TC -- after four straight games away from home, this young team needed an injection of confidence and home cooking), MU hosts the Valparaiso Crusaders on Wednesday night before traveling to take on the University of Wisconsin-Madison Badgers on Saturday afternoon.

After this two-game stretch, MU is off for finals before hosting the USF Dons at the Bradley Center on December 17.

FWIW (which ain't much), here is the underwhelming MJS weekly MU report that doubles as a preview for the Valpo game.
