The team started out with an impressive 1-0 victory over the Minnesota Thunder, a professional team playing in the United States League's First Division. The winning goal was tallied early on in the 16th minute, when Nick Kay put Anthony Colaizzi's cross into the back of the net. Goalkeeper Matt Pyzdrowski kept the slate clean, and a solid victory was earned for the Golden Eagles.

In the second game against Graceland University, coach Louis Bennett mixed the lineups around a bit but did not find the success of the earlier match. Graceland's goal seven minutes in proved too much and Marquette fell by a 1-0 score.

The team continues its schedule with a pair of matches this Saturday against Wisconsin-Parkside at Valley Fields, and in the evening versus Wisconsin-Milwaukee at Shorewood High School.
