MADISON — For the first time in program history, No. 11 Marquette volleyball has upset in-state rival No. 4 Wisconsin (22-25, 22-25, 29-27, 32-30, 15-9) on the Badgers’ home floor Thursday night.
“Our team is just riding a high right now,” senior outside hitter Allie Barber said. “We knew that we could pull this off, but I think we were really gritty and we stuck with it and it showed, winning in five. Just running high on emotions right now, it’s a great feeling.”
Even from five feet outside, one could hear “We Are Marquette” cheers coming from the Golden Eagles’ locker room.
