Women's Soccer Hosts Marquette Thursday

CHICAGO - DePaul women's soccer will host Marquette in their final regular season match in a contest slated for Thursday at 3 p.m. on Wish Field. The Blue Demons hold a 7-7-3 overall record and sit 4-3-1 in BIG EAST play.

DePaul is seeking their eighth consecutive berth to the conference quarterfinals and can do so with a win or a tie. Should the match result in a loss, the Blue Demons can still get in with a Providence loss or draw. Hosting a first-round match is also a possibility with a final record better than that of Villanova.

The match will be broadcast on the BIG EAST Digital Network. Links to watch and follow live stats can be found on the women's soccer schedule page.
