\nHUNTINGTON, W. Va. (WMUL-FM) \u2014 After a thrilling overtime victory Wednesday night, the challenges for Marshall women\u2019s basketball only increase tomorrow as it battles a top five team in the Sun Belt in the Coastal Carolina Chanticleers inside the Cam Henderson Center.<\/p>\n

With Wednesday\u2019s victory against the Old Dominion Monarchs, Marshall improved to an overall record of 8-17 and 3-10 in the Sun Belt. Senior guard Aislynn Hayes led the charge for the Herd offense, earning a new career-high in points with 29 while racking up five boards.<\/p>\n

In the most recent matchup between these two sides, Coastal Carolina lived up to its ranking as the second-best scoring offense in the Sun Belt Conference, never shooting below 40% in a quarter. Though the Herd currently ranks as a top five shooting team in the conference, the visitors shot a frigid 14% in the second and 25% from the field in the third on the way to a 76-64 loss. Defensively, the Herd gave up 26 points from turnovers during the loss.<\/p>\n

Since last defeating the Thundering Herd on Jan. 29, the Chants own the second longest winning streak in the Sun Belt Conference. As they enter Huntington on a five-game winning streak, the Chanticleers sit at an overall record of 18-6 and 8-5 in the conference.<\/p>\n

Saturday\u2019s contest will be a battle between two of the top five scoring offenses in the Sun Belt, with Marshall ranking fifth overall while averaging 68.24 points per game. Meanwhile, the second-ranked Chants are led individually by junior guard Savannah Brooks, who averages 15 points per game.<\/p>\n
