Tonight, at 8pm Central on ESPNU, the NCAA will announce the field for the 2016 women’s volleyball national championship.
Marquette’s chances of getting into the field for the sixth consecutive year have gotten a little dicey over the last three weeks.
You see, Marquette was once 21-5 overall and were sitting at #31 in the RPI. Since then, the Golden Eagles have gone 2-3 in their last five matches, and actually, that’s 1-3 in their last four contests, and actually actually, they’re on a two match losing streak, and actually actually actually, both losses are to Xavier, and the Musketeers pretty much have zero hope of making the NCAA tournament after losing the Big East title match to Creighton.
