CHARLOTTE, N.C. – The first time Charlotte wore its gold Bold Rush uniforms in 2020-21 proved to be a magical moment, as the 49ers used defensive stops in regulation down the stretch before pulling away during overtime to come-from-behind for a 65-56 home victory over Marshall Saturday afternoon. The win kept the Niners perfect in Conference USA action, earning the weekend sweep over the Thundering Herd.
UNDEFEATED START
Charlotte improved to 2-0 in Conference USA for the first time since the 2017-18 campaign when it picked up triumphs over Southern Miss and at Old Dominion.
