Marshall beat Whitewater 49-42 in non-conference girls’ basketball on Friday, January 3. Marshall jumped out to an early lead as Whitewater played a sluggish first half and trailed 12-26 at halftime. To begin the second half and fueled by their press, Whitewater went on a 27-5 run to take a 39-31 lead with six minutes remaining. Whitewater, however, was not able to maintain the energy and Marshall closed the game on an 18-3 run to end at the final score.

Whitewater returns to action next week with a home game on Tuesday against Brodhead and at St. Thomas More on Saturday.
