Volleyball sweeps SLU in Marquette Invitational

Senior setter Lauren Speckman sets the ball in Marquette's three-set sweep against Saint Louis University Sept. 21.

No. 8 Marquette women’s volleyball swept Saint Louis University (25-13, 25-23, 25-19) in its second match of the Marquette Invitational.

The Golden Eagles faced little resistance in the first set, dominating the Billikens in all aspects and cruising to a 25-13 victory.

The second frame was a different story, as SLU jumped out to an early 9-5 advantage. But Marquette fought its way back and took the set 25-23 despite a late Billikens push.

The third set was similar to the second, with an early Saint Louis lead but an eventual Marquette win.
