The Marshall University men’s soccer team was victorious over the Appalachian State University Mountaineers. This improves the Thundering Herd’s record to 3-2 overall.

“From a scheduling standpoint, we want to try to find teams that grind it out,” Marshall University coach Thomas Olivier said in the post-game conference. “They make us work and make us hustle, that make us battle going into conference. Eastern Illinois, today App state and High point before going into Birmingham next week.”

The first half was evenly matched. The Mountaineers dominated possession early, tallying multiple corner kicks early with solid attempts to score.
