History of the Golden Eagles

The Marquette Golden Eagles have a long and storied history in NCAA sports. From their first season as an independent team in 1907 to the present day, they’ve been one of the most successful teams in college athletics. Over the years, they’ve won numerous conference championships and made countless appearances at NCAA tournaments and bowl games. In addition to being one of only two schools from Wisconsin to appear at least once every year since 1970, Marquette is also home to some of college basketball's greatest players, such as Dwyane Wade, Jimmy Butler, Doc Rivers, and Al McGuire, who all played for the Golden Eagles before going on to become NBA stars.

As far back as 1911, when it joined what was then known as The Catholic Athletic Association (CAA), Marquette has had a strong presence on campus, with its men's basketball program leading the way throughout much of its history. While many other programs have come and gone over time due mainly to changes within conferences or dropping out altogether, The Golden Eagles remain firmly entrenched amongst top-tier competition while consistently competing for national titles each year under head coach Steve Wojciechowski since the 2014-15 season.

Their success isn't limited to men's basketball either - women’s soccer has seen considerable success over recent years and has captured three consecutive Big East Conference Championships between 2012-2014, along with making four straight trips into NCAA tournament play during the same timeframe too! They even advanced all way up the Sweet Sixteen round 2013 campaign, where they eventually fell short against Florida State Seminoles, ending the run that particular post-season tournament play.

Moreover, there are plenty more reasons why schools should be proud of their athletic accomplishments dating back decades ago, including winning multiple National Invitational Tournament (NIT) crowns and several CAA regular season championships well! All these accolades show how committed the university is to providing quality education and allowing students to compete for the highest levels collegiate sports world today – something no doubt makes them stand out among the rest crowd!
