The victory is the Pirates' first in conference play, while Marquette suffers its first BIG EAST loss and has a four-game win streak snapped.

Park-Lane erupted for a season-high 25 points on the strength of 6-for-8 shooting from three-point range. She also dished out eight assists and grabbed four rebounds. Her six made trifectas are a career-high. Andra Espinoza-Hunter (Ossining, N.Y.) played all 40 minutes and scored 16 points with seven rebounds, four assists and two blocks.

SCOUTING WAGNER
The Seahawks are coming off a strong abbreviated 2020-21 season, finishing with a 13-6 final record. After defeating Saint Francis, Wagner's season came to an end with a 70-38 loss to Mount St. Mary's in the NEC Championship Game.

This season, the Seahawks are predicted to place second in the 10-team Northeast Conference according to the league's preseason coaches poll. Senior Emilija Krista Grava was named to the Preseason All-NEC Team.

Wagner is off to a strong start this season with wins in seven of their first nine games. The Seahawks had one six straight, which includes a victory over St. John's on Dec. 12, but lost on Saturday at Rutgers, 73-54. Grava leads the team with 12.8 points and 5.3 rebounds per game.
