After two weeks on the road, No. 24 Marquette volleyball came home.
Facing the No. 9 Pitt Panthers in their home opener, the Golden Eagles aimed to get their first win against a ranked opponent in front of a crowd donned in gold from head-to-toe.
But Marquette (2-4) will have to wait until Sunday after getting swept 3-0 (15-25, 13-25, 20-25) by Pitt (5-1) on its home court at the Al McGuire Center.
“We call it death by 10,000 paper cuts,” Marquette head coach Ryan Theis said.
