Marshall Earns More Nationals Publicity

Accolades keep on rolling in from the national media with last nights win over WVU.

Eric Prisbell runs a blog dedicated to bracketology and the NCAA men’s D1 basketball tournament for the Washington Post. In a post titled “What mattered Wednesday”, Marshall’s upset win over WVU was number 1:

1) Marshall 75, West Virginia 71: Marshall is 13-5 and this was not much of a damaging loss from an RPI standpoint. But it's a significant win for first-year coach Tom Herrion, the former Pittsburgh assistant. Marshall had lost four straight against its in-state rival. Damier Pitts, who scored 25 points, said, "Either you go to West Virginia and you don't like Marshall or you go to Marshall and you don't like West Virginia."
