Herd men’s basketball drops crucial conference game to UAB

Despite the Marshall men’s basketball team having four players score in double-digits, it wasn’t enough for it to conquer the UAB Blazers as it fell 77-68 Thursday night at the Cam Henderson Center.

The Thundering Herd dropped to 13-13 (6-7 C-USA), while the Blazers improved to 15-11 (7-6 C-USA). The Herd has lost four straight games and seven of its last eight games.

“Obviously I’m disappointed as heck,” Marshall head coach Dan D’Antoni said. “Since I’ve been here, I haven’t seen us this lackadaisical. Other than that, I got nothing to say.”

Senior guard Jon Elmore led the Herd with 20 points, eight rebounds, and five assists.
