In the spring 2021 season opener, the Marshall men’s soccer team tied with Ohio Valley University after a physical, overtime match.
For the Division II Fighting Scots from Parkersburg, West Virginia, the match was simply an exhibition, but for the Herd, the match will count toward its final record.
After the game, assistant coach Petsa Ivanovic said that despite Ohio Valley being a Division II team, the Scots were a quality, organized opponent.
A season ago, Ohio Valley charted a similar path to that of Marshall, both losing in the second round of their respective NCAA tournament.
