Marquette survived a set and a half of lousy volleyball on Saturday afternoon to come away with a 3-1 (25-13, 25-19, 17-25, 25-22) win over Seton Hall, but on Sunday, things were different. The Golden Eagles couldn’t get their business sorted out for any real stretch of time and suffered a 3-2 (30-32, 25-23, 25-19, 16-25, 10-15) loss to St. John’s in the 2016 home finale.
With the weekend split, Marquette is now 22-6 on the season and 12-4 in Big East matches. A couple of things happened after this weekend’s results. First: Creighton clinched the Big East regular season title, as they remained undefeated and there’s no longer a mathematical chance that they could lose enough times to come back down to Marquette.
