WKU (16-16), (6-6, C-USA) completed its first Conference USA sweep over Marshall (4-19), (0-12, C-USA) on Sunday afternoon winning 8-1. The respective programs had to play with heavy 20 MPH winds blowing to left field.

Marshall has dropped its past 12 games following the series against WKU. The Thundering Herd have been swept by Florida Atlantic, Old Dominion and now WKU.

“Great way for the Hilltoppers to finish off a weekend,” head coach John Pawlowski said.
