JORDAN — A season ago, the Marshall Tigers football team dropped its regular season finale to Jordan in an offensive shootout.

This year, the Marshall offense scored six touchdowns and the defense forced six turnovers en route to a 42-0 shutout victory over a Jordan team that was playing without its senior quarterback.

“We came out and played well on both sides of football,” Marshall football coach Terry Bahlmann said after the game “We moved the ball well on offense, and on defense the whole secondary played well with five interceptions.”

The Tigers passing attack was effective early and often, with Bryce Lance featured as the favorite target of Konnor Aufenthie. The two of them connected eight times for 196 yards and two touchdowns. On the day, Aufenthie threw for 211 yards and added a rushing touchdown to his two passing scores to Lance.

The receiving yardage is a career high for Lance and the most receiving yards in a game in Marshall program history. It also gives Lance 746 receiving yards for the season, a new single-season program record.

Gabe Raini added 120 rushing yards and three rushing touchdowns for the Tigers.

With Marshall’s 42-0 win over Jordan, it all but ensures Marshall will earn the No. 2 seed and a first-round bye in the Section 2AAAA Tournament. The tournament bracket will be released today, as Marshall will find out who they could play in the section semifinal.

“We’re excited that we get to play at home next Saturday,” Bahlmann said “Now we need to get guys rested up and ready to play.”
