The No. 1 Marshall University Men’s Soccer team defeated the West Virginia University Mountaineers to secure the Sun Belt Men’s Soccer Tournament Championship 3-2 on Sunday, Nov. 12, in front of a Mountain State Derby record crowd of 3,151 fans at Hoops Family Field.
The Herd earned its second tournament title in program history and its first in the Sun Belt, along with a program best 17-win season, topping the 2019 C-USA championship team’s 16 wins.
“I think we saw two fantastic teams, who’ve battled each other all year,” head coach Chris Grassie said after the win.
