Marquette volleyball made their fifth consecutive NCAA tournament appearance last season. That’s an impressive enough feat, as it’s also the fifth appearance in program history. We also have to pay tribute to what head coach Ryan Theis accomplished last year. In going from Year One to Year Two, Theis lost 75% of the total attacks on his roster, not to mention the loss of the reigning Big East Player of the Year in Autumn Bailey. He essentially had to re-invent his offensive flow on the fly, and holy hell, did everything really work out well for Theis.
The transition from Year Two to Year Three will be less difficult for Theis.
