UConn is coming off a BIG EAST win over the Marquette Golden Eagles on Saturday afternoon. The Huskies rolled past the Golden Eagles in a 17-7 decision as Rayea Davis led the offense with five goals and five assists, totaling a career-high 10 points. It was a season-high defensive showing for the Huskies as well, causing 17 turnovers and recording 26 ground balls. Davis was named BIG EAST Attacker of the Week for her efforts, along with her teammates Rylee Brown and Landyn White, who were awarded Midfielder of the Week and Defensive Player of the Week, respectively.
