Marquette and Wisconsin play in first volleyball match at Fiserv Forum

Marquette will take on the No. 1 Wisconsin Badgers in a women’s volleyball match at Fiserv Forum Sept. 13.

“A whole lot of people have done a lot of work to get us in this type of environment, in this kind of stage for the sport of volleyball and Marquette volleyball,” Marquette head coach Ryan Theis said Sunday.

It will be the first volleyball game at Fiserv Forum in history. It has the potential of hosting 17,385 fans which would make it the largest crowd in an indoor arena for a regular season volleyball match.

Before Wednesday, the largest crowd Marquette has played in front of at the Al McGuire Center is 3,175, achieved during its 3-0 sweep against then-No.
