Five minutes.
That's what the entire Marshall vs. West Virginia University game
came down to Wednesday at the Charleston Civic Center Coliseum.
The last five minutes.
After 35 minutes of close basketball that was more competitive
than pretty, this game was decided during the final five minutes.
And Marshall came up two minutes short.
The Mountaineers out-shot, out-played and, mostly, out-executed
the Herd down the stretch to claim a 65-61 win before a near-
capacity crowd of 11, 981.
