The Marshall University women’s basketball team put on a show in front of new university president Jerome Gilbert Saturday as it dominated Rice University 81-52 to achieve its largest margin of victory over a Conference USA opponent in its 11 seasons as a member.
The Herd (12-4, 2-3) were led by senior forward Leah Scott who scored 18 points on 6-12 shooting to go along with three rebounds and three assists.
Freshman guard Logan Fraley totaled 13 points off the bench, connecting on all four of her 3-point attempts, while fellow reserve Chelsey Romero pulled down 13 rebounds to go with five points.
