Marquette notches third consecutive win in sweep of Georgetown

Just over 20 hours after they defeated the Villanova Wildcats in four sets, Marquette women’s volleyball took down the Georgetown Hoyas in straight sets (25-14, 26-24, 25-10) Saturday.

The Golden Eagles had firm control over the first set, never trailing in the set and winning the frame 25-14. The two teams had 22 combined errors in the first set alone.

In the second, Marquette hopped out to an early 7-1 lead, but the Hoyas stormed back. After a 5-2 Georgetown run trimmed Marquette’s lead to 19-17, head coach Ryan Theis called his first timeout of the match to regroup.
