We’ve said it as an abstract in the past: Every Marquette volleyball match since losing to Creighton on October 14th earlier this season has been for the Big East regular season title.
This weekend, it becomes real, as if everything else goes to plan — aka Marquette beats Xavier on Friday — Saturday’s match will be for the Big East regular season title.
Marquette has needed to go step for step with the Bluejays after that loss in order to turn Saturday’s regular season finale into a contest for a split title between the two teams.
