Herd rebound against Western Kentucky

The Marshall University men’s basketball team rebounded after two straight away losses in an exciting 94-80 win against Western Kentucky University Saturday at the Cam Henderson Center. The win keeps the Herd undefeated at home.

Not only was the 1971-72 Marshall men’s basketball team, who advanced to the NCAA tournament, honored at halftime, but the largest home crowd of the season with 6,813 people was in attendance for the nationally televised matchup, as well. The Herd scored 19 three-pointers to not only tie for record threes made in a single game, it was also the team’s high in shots made in a single game, passing their previous high of 15 against then-No.
