I'm 99% sure that Marquette got the student's permission before including that information.

Exactly.  My guess is that she didn't want this disclosed beforehand and only agreed to this short mention.

And it wouldn't be a HIPAA violation since Marquette isn't providing the health care.  It would be a FERPA violation.

You could make that argument should something like this go to court.

From what I understand, an individual doesn't have standing to sue for either HIPPA or FERPA.  It is handled administratively through the Department of Education.

I'm 99% sure that Marquette got the student's permission before including that information.

Also, while it may not have been widely known before the MU press release, it was publicly known.

[StillAWarrior]

Based on what I'm hearing, it seems that the Big East may be a 10-team league (at most) for volleyball this spring.

On a related note, it would seem that I've seen my daughter play her last volleyball match. Kind of a bummer. I wish I'd known at the time.

[StillAWarrior]

Marquette released what I assume is a partial schedule:

• 1/22 (5:30 CT) vs Illinois State
• 1/23 (1:00 CT) vs Illinois State
• 1/30 (TBA) @ Northern Iowa
• 1/31 (TBA) vs Drake (@UNI)
• 2/5 (TBA) @ Creighton
• 2/6 (TBA) @ Creighton
• 2/26 (TBA) vs Saint Louis
• 2/27 (TBA) vs Iowa State

Looking at opponents' schedules, we can add these dates that don't appear on MU's schedule:

• 2/19 (7:00 CT) vs Creighton
• 2/20 (1:00 CT) vs Creighton
• 3/5 (6:00 EST) @ Butler
• 3/6 (4:00 EST) @ Butler
• 3/13 (3:00 EST) @ Xavier
• 3/14 (3:00 EST) @ Xavier
• 4/2 (TBA) Big East Tournament @ Creighton
• 4/3 (TBA) Big East Tournament @ Creighton

I assume they're plugging Xavier and DePaul into those open weekends in February and/or the remaining weekends in March.

Edited to add the Xavier matches after X released its schedule.

Have the Marquette vs. Creighton match on my computer with the Bucks on the TV. Underwhelmed by both teams. Can't imagine playing with a mask in makes it easier to play though.

[wadesworld]

Marquette was up 9-5 in the fifth and lost 15-11. Pretty terrible.

Lots of matches between the two schools this season. Should be a battle for both.

[Mr. Nielsen]

The Big Ten games I've flipped on, the girls don't have the masks on. I wonder what the rules are.

For anybody interested, the "I Think We're Good Here" podcast had Marv Dunphy as today's guest.  Marv is the GOAT when it comes to men's volleyball coaching, and he has some awesome stories.  It's not the most exciting podcast ever, it's really just three guys sitting around telling some stories.  But having been lucky enough to get to know Marv and some of the people in the stories, it was an awesome listen for me.  He did his dissertation on John Wooden and has some stories from his time working with John.

25th ranked Marquette bounced back after losing a close 5 setter at 19th ranked Creighton, to defeat the same team (Creighton) in strong 3 set fashion. 25-21,25-14,25-23. Nice effort in Omaha this weekend over two matches.

That was a nice win for MU coming on the heels of a tough loss. It was also an important win because Creighton has absolutely owned MU for years (I think 8 straight before Saturday, and 15 of the last 16 going back to 2014). I think Creighton is a little down this year, so it might be MU's opportunity to win the conference. Hopefully this win will give them some confidence to propel themselves forward.

Yeah I think I read that they hadn't beaten Creighton since 2013.  These games were considered non-conference contests I believe and the ones counting for the conference are coming up in a couple weeks I think.

They beat Creighton once in 2017, but before that, you have to go back to 2013.

Ok thanks - wasn't sure about that stat and for a good reason as I see I was wrong .

Women's Basketball is participating in this with their home game Friday versus Villanova.  Best wishes for Sarah as she battled cancer.

Creighton not making the trip to MKE this weekend, COVID issues. No make up date scheduled yet.

I was really sorry to see this today especially with the plans this weekend to honor Sarah Rose.

Sarah Rose was honored today and got to serve - pretty cool - https://twitter.com/MarquetteVB/status/1365810110279352323

A professional women's league in the US started last night. They have matches going on tonight at 7:00 Central on Fox Sports 2.

[Mr. Nielsen]

Here is the schedule

Pretty impressive level of play. Much faster game than even the highest D1 level.

That was very cool. Good on ISU for taking the ace as well. I'd assume MU gave ISU an ace their first serve.

That's what I was guessing happened too but I didn't look it up.  I had no idea they were going to do this and it was cool to see the video of it.
