Marquette slides into Top 10 in both USA TODAY and AP Top 25

For the first time since the 2011-12 season, the Marquette Golden Eagles are a Top 10 team.

The Golden Eagles have slid up to 10th in the AP Top 25 and 9th in the USA TODAY Coaches Poll. MU was on the outside looking in last week, but following wins over the DePaul Blue Demons and the Xavier Musketeers, the Golden Eagles did enough to leap into an enviable position.

They were last in the Top 10 in the final week of the 2011-12 season, when they were ranked 9th at the time.
