With seven straight losses overall to Creighton Bluejays heading into the weekend and eight straight losses in Omaha, we always knew that Marquette women’s volleyball wasn’t likely to come back from their weekend two match jaunt without a loss.
But they return to Milwaukee with only one.
After falling in five sets (13-25, 25-20, 25-23, 20-25, 11-15) on Friday night at D.J. Sokol Arena, the #25 ranked Golden Eagles bounced back 24 hours later to sweep the #19 ranked Bluejays 3-0 (25-21, 25-14, 25-23) and move to 4-2 on the season. It is Marquette’s first win over Creighton at all since October 5, 2017 and their first win over the Bluejays at Sokol Arena since November 30, 2013.
