BOUNCING BACK

THE MATCHUP

Marshall (2-2) (0-1)  is looking to bounce back from a disappointing loss to Pine Tree last Friday night.

​

The Mav's 25 consecutive game district winning streak that dated back to 2016 was snapped.

​

Marshall's 8 game winning streak over Pine Tree was snapped.  And it was the Pirate's first win at Maverick Stadium since 1985.

​

The Mavs are now (0-1) in district and in fifth place in the district standings.

​

A win this Friday over Jacksonville would put Marshall back in firm control of their playoff destiny.
