PRE-MATCH NOTES

  • Sunday is Marshall's conference home opener. The Herd was away from Huntington for a week, drawing with Georgia State in Atlanta, before dropping its match at Texas State Thursday evening. 
  • A pair of goal scorers notched their first of the season on the road trip. Last year's goal leader Bailey Fisher equalized in Atlanta Sunday. Fisher is third in the conference in total shots (24) and shots on goal (15). Thursday also marked the first career goal for freshman Brooklyn McComas.
  • Sunday's match will be the first time Troy plays in Huntington. The Herd won last season's meeting 2-1 in Alabama in what was the first-ever match the two sides played.

  • Similar to the Herd, Troy is averaging a goal per game, while giving up 1.44 per game. Senior Delaney Wells leads the team with three goals this season.
