Every article in that paper shares a differ- ent story of a life lost. “There is no one untouched. There is no one who can hear of this and not feel sorrow and grief. And we, the students, feel the pain so deeply that we cry and cry and wonder how, and why,” Mike Grant, 1970 Student Body President, said on the cover of The Parthenon from Nov. 18, 1970.

The Marshall men’s basketball team continues its three-game homes- tand Wednesday against the Mount St. Mary’s Mountaineers in the Center. “They play a very similar style to what we do,” head coach Dan D’Antoni said. “In fact, it’s the same defense and the same offense. I don’t know if (Mount St. Mary’s head coach Dan Engelstad) got it before I did or if I got it before him, but they’re definitely the same.” The Herd looks to improve on its 2-0 record coming off a 76-72 win over Hofstra Sunday, in the team’s first home game of the season. Mount St. Mary’s aims to notch its first win of the year after an 0-2 start with losses to NC State and Hofstra. The game will be the Mountaineers’ third of four straight road games to begin the year. D’Antoni said Marshall needs to improve on its rebounding heading into Wednesday’s contest against the Mountaineers. “We’ve had a couple periods of rebounding that we’ve got to get better at,” D’Antoni said. “We’ve been a perimeter team for four years. We have to mix it a little bit from the perimeter to the inside with Iran (Bennett) and (Ante) Sustic. We’ve got to be better at seeing those opportunities.” RICK FARLOW Mount St. Mary’s has struggled with rebounding to start the year and Senior guard Jon Elmore dribbles around Hofstra’s guard Justin Wright-Foreman during his 30-point performance opponents have out-rebounded the Mountaineers by an average of 15.9 against the Pride Sunday.
