The Marshall University men’s basketball team snapped a two-game losing streak Saturday when it defeated the University of Texas at San Antonio, 109-91, on the road.

The 109 points were the most Marshall scored all season and the second time in as many games it exceeded the 100-point mark.

The Herd (12-12, 8-3) knocked down 18 3-pointes in the win, which was one shy of the school record.

Sophomore point guard Jon Elmore accounted for more than a third of the Herd’s 3-pointer output, canning a career-high seven triples on 12 attempts en route to a team-high 23 points.
