Powell native Matt Napier helping Marietta men's basketball to best start in school history

2010 Dec 16

On Wednesday (Dec. 15) evening, Marietta College freshman post Matt Napier and the Pioneers defeated host Waynesburg (Pa.) Univeristy 80-56 in non conference action.

The win improved the Marietta's record to 8-0 and set a new school record for best start in the program's 110-year history. The previous best start of 7-0 was set in 1908-09 and matched in 1974-75.

The Pioneers, under the leadership of fourth-year Head Coach Jon VanderWal, will look to continute the momentum and stay atop the Ohio Athletic Conference standings when they visit Ohio Northern University Saturday (Dec. 18) for a key league match-up at 4 p.m.
