Herd wins at ODU for first time on Kelly’s 3

NORFOLK, Va. — The old saying is, “They won the battle, but lost the war.”

That might be exactly how the Old Dominion men’s basketball locker room is feeling right now, as Virginia Beach native and ODU senior guard Trey Freeman hit a career-high 37 points, while redshirt sophomore forward Brandan Stith scored nearly double his 8.0 per game average with a season-best tying 15 points and junior forward Denzell Taylor pulled 13 rebounds against his average of 6.8 per game.

Kelly had double-double.
James Kelly posts his C-USA leading 10th double-double with 21 points and 12 rebounds, hitting a three with 4-seconds left to give Marshall its first ever win in six trips to ODU, 78-75, and move the Herd to 6-1 in C-USA.
