After the events of this past weekend, Marquette volleyball is 2-5 on the season and riding a four match losing streak. Yes, all five of the losses were to teams ranked at the time the match was played, but when you’re #24 in the country and you lose your fourth straight match, even to a ranked opponent, you’re probably falling out of the top 25.
That is indeed what happened to Marquette when the new AVCA top 25 came out on Monday afternoon. However, it wasn’t by much. The Golden Eagles are still earning some AVCA top 25 votes, enough to make them the unofficial #29 team in the country with 55 points.
