Men’s Basketball Dominates Georgia State 103-65

Men’s basketball defeated Georgia State 103-65 Saturday night.

After a crushing loss to ULM in double overtime Thursday, the Herd put on a solid offensive and defensive performance against the Panthers.

Marshall shot 56 percent from the field and forced 23 turnovers.

Junior Andrew Taylor was the game’s leading scorer with 20 points.

“A lot of it was focusing and taking care of what we were doing,” Taylor said. “I feel like Thursday; maybe we weren’t speeding the other team up as much as we needed to defensively. Tonight, we had our foot on the gas and kept it there and got a 40-point victory.
