Herd to face FAMU in home-opener
Fresh off a massive win on the road against University of Illinois, the Marshall women’s basketball team returns to Huntington Tuesday open the home portion of their schedule, facing off against the Florida A&M Rattlers.
Marshall will be riding the hot shooting of combo guard Shayna Gore as it heads back into Huntington. Gore, who hit the game-winning shot to knock off the Illini, recorded a career-high 29 points in the victory. She also added six rebounds and three steals, helping the Herd to a narrow 53-55 victory. Head coach Matt Daniel says the Gore needs to build on that if the team wants to continue its winning ways.
