I like to deal in facts around here, and this is a fact: #16 ranked Marquette volleyball swept #11 Creighton — 25-119, 25-19, 25-21 — on Saturday night to secure the program’s second straight Big East regular season title.
Here’s another fact: This is the first time in program history that Marquette has won back-to-back regular season titles.
Also a fact: Because both teams are 17-1 after Saturday night’s regular season finale, officially Marquette and Creighton are co-champs for the second consecutive season.
A slightly better fact: Because the season series is tied at one win each, the tiebreaker for the #1 seed in the conference tournament goes to set wins.
