After Thursday’s last-second loss to the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, Marshall women’s basketball coach Matt Daniel said his team needed to come out of the gate with more intensity to put itself in better position to win conference games.
His team answered the call Sunday, topping Old Dominion University, 80-62.
In the opening frame of Sunday afternoon’s conference clash with the Monarchs, a game which was delayed from its original tip-off time of 1 p.m. Saturday, the Herd filled the stat sheet en route to a 21-point first quarter, a far cry from the mere nine points Daniel’s team mustered in the opening quarter Thursday against Charlotte.
