MTSU's men became the only undefeated team in Conference USA with a 69-57 win over Marshall Thursday night at the Murphy Center.
The Thundering Herd (11-7, 3-1) went into the game hot, winners of four in a row, but the Blue Raiders (14-3, 4-0) used a strong defensive effort to halt their streak. It was the fourth win in a row for MTSU.
"That's about as well as we've defended all year," MTSU head coach Kermit Davis said. "I was really proud, because we weren't at our best offensively."
MTSU did what no other team has been able to do against the Herd this season: hold them under 70 points.
