Herd hits the road in league play

After opening the Conference USA portion of its schedule with a three-game home stand, the Herd hits the road to take on the Charlotte 49ers (5-9, 1-2 CUSA) on Thursday and the Old Dominion Monarchs (12-3, 3-0 CUSA) on Saturday.

Head Coach Dan D’Antoni said he expects a much different Charlotte team than Marshall has faced in years past after former 49er Head Coach Mark Price was replaced by Interim Head Coach Houston Fancher after the team’s first nine games. In years past, Charlotte, much like Marshall, has been dependent on the three-point shot.

“(They’re) posting up a lot more,” D’Antoni said.
