For many, the time has come. Those who have lived or spent any time in Huntington and wanted the chance to get the economic ball rolling may do so next week.

Head coach Jim Donnan said, "We were glad to get the bad taste (of a loss) out ofour mouth with a win. We look forward to playing a good football team in· East Tennessee State." Marshall has won 10 of the 14 total games against the Buc caneers. The Herd won last year's game 33-9. Despite the score, Donnan said ETSU gave The Herd a bit of a challenge. "They did well against us last year," he said. "They had 180 yards rushing the ball." Buccaneer head coach Mike Cavan said, "I see this Mar shall team as a lot better than last year's team. Todd Donnan is having a great year at quar terback and Chris Parker will be the player of the year." The Buccaneers have won two conferen·ce games this year and are at .500 overall. One loss was to Divison I-A power house Auburn. "I'm disappointed in what we've done this year. We have a good football team," Cavan said. "But it could get embarassing for us this week end.
