Things were not looking up for the team in blue and gold.

Senior middle blocker Elise Goetzinger had just notched her tenth kill of the match to put No. 6 Creighton (12-2, 3-0) up 22-19 late in the third set. That’s when Marquette women’s volleyball (6-6, 2-1) decided to make things interesting.

The Golden Eagles would finish the set on a 6-1 run, fueled by a kill from graduate middle blocker Carsen Murray, two kills — including the final kill of the frame— from junior outside hitter Natalie Ring and a service ace from graduate setter Yadhira Anchante.
