Marshall’s Shayna Gore dribbles as the Herd take on the Ohio University Bobcats in the postseason WNIT game in Athens, Ohio.
In what was their final tune up before Conference USA play, the Marshall Thundering Herd women’s basketball team welcomed the Maine Fort Kent Bengals into the friendly confines of the Cam Henderson Center Tuesday afternoon, winning handedly and breaking records in the process.
From the moment the first whistle blew, the final result was never in doubt.
Marshall stormed out to a 13-2 lead less than halfway through the first quarter. The Herd ultimately grew that lead thanks to a 16-9 run, pushing the deficit to 29-11 with two minutes left to play in the opening frame.
