Milwaukee, Wisconsin – The Marquette Golden Eagles men’s soccer team is set to face the Providence Friars on Friday, October 17, 2025, amid a challenging start to their BIG EAST conference play. The match will kick off at 6 PM Central time and fans wishing to watch the game will need to pay Providence $7 for 24 hours of access to their video streaming service.
Currently, Marquette holds an overall record of 5-4-2, but they have struggled in conference play, sitting at 0-4-0 in the BIG EAST. After a promising beginning to the season with a record of 3-0-2, the Golden Eagles have suffered four consecutive losses against conference opponents. In their latest match against Butler, the team managed to score just one goal, ultimately losing the contest 2-1.
In the match against Butler, Mitchell Dryden scored Marquette’s lone goal in the 11th minute, giving the team an early lead. However, Butler responded with two goals—one in the 25th minute and another in the 78th minute—securing the victory despite Marquette outshooting them by a significant margin of 26-10. The Golden Eagles struggled to convert their opportunities into goals, which has been a prominent concern in their recent matches.
In order to have any hope of qualifying for the conference tournament, Marquette must now earn maximum points from their remaining matches. They have four BIG EAST games left on their schedule and can potentially earn a maximum of 12 points if they win all of them. Currently, Creighton leads the Midwest Division with nine points, while Seton Hall and St. John’s are close behind with eight and seven points, respectively.
The Friars of Providence come into the matchup with an overall record of 4-6-1, including a 2-2-0 mark in BIG EAST play. Their most recent outing ended in disappointment as they fell to St. John’s by a score of 3-2. Both teams are looking to regain momentum as the season progresses.
The upcoming game represents a crucial point for Marquette as they aim to turn their season around and break their losing streak in conference play. Fans will be hopeful that the Golden Eagles can capitalize on their home game against Providence to secure a much-needed victory.
In summary, the Marquette Golden Eagles are in a challenging position heading into their match against the Providence Friars. The team must convert their offensive opportunities into goals to keep their hopes for a successful BIG EAST season alive.
