Men’s Basketball: Owls hold off Marshall 71-60, extend winning streak to three

FAU men’s basketball (11-8, 4-2 C-USA) hosted the Marshall University Thundering Herd (7-12, 0-6 C-USA) in the Burrow at Abessinio Court Saturday afternoon, winning 71-60.

Already beating Marshall on the road earlier this month, this marks the first time since the 2012-13 season that FAU beat Marshall twice in the same calendar year.

“We’re playing our best basketball. Now, we just have to continue showing up day after day learning from our mistakes, figuring out what we need to do,” head coach Dusty May said.

The arena was vibrant as 1,721 people attended the game as many of them cheered on the Owls in an energetic manner.
