Volleyball sets up for crucial A-10 match against Butler

With two games remaining in the Atlantic 10 Conference season, the Owls (17-9, 7-5 in A-10) head to Butler (15-11, 5-7 in A-10) to take on the Bulldogs with playoff berths on the line.

It’s the two programs only match as conference foes, as Butler joined the A-10 this season and the Owls scheduled to move to the Big East Conference next season.

A victory for Temple secures the Owls one of the six playoff seeds in the A-10 tournament. If the Bulldogs come out on top they stay alive with a chance to unseat Temple, Duquesne or George Washington if they win their final match and get some help along the way.

A Temple victory would be ideal but the Owls also have a match against La Salle, keeping their fate in their own hands.

The match is set to begin at noon.
