Men’s basketball fall in battle with College of Charleston

Losing its third straight contest, the Marshall University men’s basketball team was defeated 76-66 by the College of Charleston at the Cam Henderson Center on Nov. 19.

“Defensively, we’re still playing good enough to win,” Head Coach Dan D’Antoni said. “We’ve just got to find rhythm offensively.”

With good play from redshirt senior forward Jannson Williams on both the offensive and defensive ends to begin the game, Marshall started strong with a seven-point lead eight minutes into the contest.

Near the end of the first half, Marshall let the lead slip away, and the teams entered halftime tied at 35.
