Women’s Basketball takes down UPIKE

Marshall Women’s Basketball kicked off their championship defending season against the University of Pikeville in a Fans First game Sunday, Oct. 27.

The team squeezed out a win in their first contest and started the season on a good note. Prior to the game, the team was more than ready to show the world and Marshall fans what they have been building in the offseason.

“I’m really excited to just get things started,” junior forward Meredith Maier said. “We’ve been putting in the work and trying to learn coach Fulks’ system, which I think we have adapted to really well, so I’m eager to be able to use it on the court against competition.
