HUNTINGTON, W.Va. – The Marshall University Men's Basketball team (2-6) fell to the Duquesne Dukes (6-2), 85-72, on Wednesday night at the Cam Henderson Center.
Â
"I thought we played harder. The score doesn't look like it, but we played harder and better," Herd men's basketball coach Dan D'Antoni said after the game. "That's (Duquesne) a very good team. They're 6-2 now and they played some top dogs even."
Â
After not playing on Saturday against Miami (OH), Cameron Crawford scored a career-high 20 points on a 50 percent shooting night (9-for-18) against Dukes.
Â
Obinna Anochili-Killen tallied 13 points and grabbed 12 rebounds for his first double-double of the season in the contest. Kamdyn Curfman added 14 points with Kevon Voyles scoring 12.
Â
Nate Martin saw his double-double streak end at four games, but he continued his double-figure rebounding streak to five contests with 11 boards.
Â
The Herd led by five points, 12-7, after a 7-0 run at the 11:34 mark in the first half. Duquesne answered with a 14-0 streak to take a 21-12 lead and MU couldn't get back on top of the visitors.
Â
Marshall outscored Duquesne 14-8 in second-chance points and 29-18 in bench points.
Â
UP NEXT
Marshall goes on the road to face former Mid-American rival Ohio on Saturday at 4 p.m. in Athens, Ohio.
