Both games were must-win.
No. 19 Marquette went to Lawrence, Kansas to face two Top-25 teams, Purdue and Kansas, needing to make a statement that the opening weekend was a fluke.
Instead, the Golden Eagles (2-3) head back to Milwaukee under .500 after going winless over the invitational weekend.
Purdue
Marquette was one point away from its first ranked win of the season.
But, the Golden Eagles ended up losing the match 3-2 (25-18, 18-25, 25-16, 27-29, 15-17) after failing to secure the victory Friday afternoon in the Horejsi Athletic Center.
