When Marquette volleyball slipped from #25 in the country to one spot outside the AVCA top 25 over the past two weeks, I had a bad feeling about this week’s new poll. After all, MU was slated to face two top 10 programs on Saturday and Sunday, and odds were long that the Golden Eagles were going to even go 1-1. As somewhat expected, Marquette lost to Kentucky and Wisconsin over the weekend.
The AVCA voters? Not easily swayed by high profile losses.
