How about a new room for "Other Marquette Athletics"?  People can post about the womens' hoops teams and all of the other sports there?

My god it says OT......just skip the thread if you aren't interested......

[Warrior1969]

Yeah of all the crap in these threads I think we can have an OT thread on the Volleyball team

Especially when it's good news on a slow Labor Day weekend.

So glad this was posted here as I would have missed it!

We've been rocking a volleyball thread in the superbar for quite a few years now.

Marquette volleyball is really good. Most consistent team at MU over the past decade and coming off a S16 appearance last year.

Marquette will be on national tv, this Thursday at Wisconsin on FS1.

The board is called Hangin' at the Al. MU volleyball plays at the Al.

Works for me. And congratulations to the ladies!

Not a big volleyball fan but I wouldn't miss the opportunity to watch MU crush UW on national TV in anything.

Unfortunately my fear is it might go the other way Thursday.  Last year's match at Marquette got very ugly the second and third sets, but Marquette is better this year than they were last year so they could at least compete this year.  Hoping for the best, but Wisconsin volleyball has been on a completely different level than Marquette.  Marquette has been moving the right direction for the last decade or so though.

In the Boise St. game, the team was mediocre...yet they still swept—a sign of a very good team. Against a highly ranked BYU, they dominated, especially in the serve...and I think they started to find their block game.

With Lines, MU may have three AA candidates. But, Wisconsin is so dominating at the nets. In the end, a big week for MUVB, but great to see this team do well.  Lots of upside from a fan perspective.

Naughty language! "My gosh" or "my goodness" would be much betta. Staring "OT" makes this thread all the more upsetting! #BanTime

Ok I don't know if you all were bashing on this idea, but I was trying to suggest a compromise between "Hanging at the AL is only for men's hoops" and "it's nice to hear about the sports teams at MU sometimes.

Too bad that the volleyball game on Thursday is up against Bears Packers.  I'll try to check in during commercials.

[Mr. Nielsen]

Get the two tv set up. Or stream it on a laptop or phone.

MU women's soccer took down Michigan yesterday after losing in OT earlier this week to Wisconsin

There is NOTHING about "men" in this forum's description. You are being sexist. Shame!

11th in rankings.  Highest in program history.

[Mr. Nielsen]

Currently on FS1 vs Bucky

[wadesworld]

Repeat of last year. Control most of set one but bleed it away down the stretch. Sets 2 and 3 got ugly last year. Hopefully that's not a repeat.

Lines is small in person. She's going to get exposed by bigger right side blocks.

And Barber needs to stay tall and hit high hands. She could tool the block every swing, she's stronger than any block against her, but she loves to pull the ball down into the middle of the giant block.

[wadesworld]

MU is a good setter away from a legit Final Four contender.

Libero is the best player in the match on either side. Very impressive. 8 does a nice job defensively as well.

[Galway Eagle]

Nice, not a sweep
