(Courtesy C-USA/Hal Yeager)BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — Marshall should still have some life left in the 2015-16 team when it comes to postseason tournaments like the WNIT or WBI, but the NCAA Tournament will remain elusive for a Herd women’s team that has only gone to the “Big Dance” one time since 1970. The Herd will settle for a third-time of reaching the Conference USA Tournament (along with 2008 and 2009) but not reaching the finals as Middle Tennessee shot better and rebounded better in defeating the Marshall women, 69-41.
