Muskies out-shoot #24 Yellow Jackets

NEW CONCORD, Ohio – Jarrell Marsh scored a game-high 31 points and Tri-Valley grad Marcus Dempsey tallied 22 points to help Muskies (6-1, 2-1) outlast #24 Baldwin Wallace (5-2, 1-2) in an overtime thriller, 98-95.

Yellow Jacket junior Cam Kuhn’s three-pointer with 3.3 seconds remaining in regulation forced overtime, but the Muskies were able to overcome an early deficit with baskets from Marsh, Dempsey and Joshua Keyes.

Muskingum heads to Westerville next Saturday as it takes on the Otterbein Cardinals looking for back-to-back OAC wins for the first time this season.
