So, the Marshall University Men’s Basketball team didn’t have the best start at the Cayman Islands Classic. They lost to the Utah State Aggies, and it wasn’t a great game for them. The head coach, Dan D’Antoni, said they didn’t play very well and lacked the resolve they needed. He mentioned that they have the talent and physical ability, but they need to be more aggressive and tough to get the job done.
Kevon Voyles scored the most points for Marshall with 17, but it just wasn’t enough. Cameron Crawford and Nate Martin also put up some good numbers, but the team couldn’t pull off a win. Despite trailing by 15 points at one stage, they managed to bring the deficit down to just four, but they couldn’t quite catch up to the Aggies.
The Herd did have some strong points, leading in second-chance points and making the most of their offensive rebounds. But in the end, it wasn’t enough to secure a win.
Next up, Marshall will be facing either FIU or Akron at the Cayman Islands Classic. Let’s hope they can turn things around and come back stronger in the next game.
