HUNTINGTON, W.Va. – The Marshall Athletics Ticket Office announced that football season tickets can now be renewed for 2022, a campaign that will be the program’s inaugural season in the Sun Belt Conference (SBC).

The Thundering Herd will welcome the Louisiana Ragin’ Cajuns, Coastal Carolina Chanticleers, App State Mountaineers and Georgia State Panthers for in-conference action at Joan C. Edwards Stadium this fall. That quartet is coming off a combined record of 42-12 in 2021 – setting the stage for one of the best conference home schedules in school history.

“The opposition coming to Joan C. Edwards Stadium this fall is so impressive,” said new Marshall Athletic Director Christian Spears.

“I love the home schedule. All Herd fans should…now is the time to renew your season tickets as we introduce Thundering Herd football to the Sun Belt Conference. We all need to follow the Sun and show this conference what it means to be a Marshall fan.”

Even with that higher-profile competition, season ticket pricing was unchanged from the 2021 season and prices remained the same for the third straight year.

“Our season tickets will start, once again, at just $99 each for all six home games and we have premium options available for fans wishing to be close to or near mid-field,” said Cole Woodrum, Marshall’s Assistant Athletics Director for Ticketing.

“We are very excited for this new Sun Belt schedule that is bringing top-level competition to Huntington. Everyone should also be very excited for the innovative ideas that Christian will bring to game days for Herd fans. It will be a can’t-miss season in 2022.”

Additionally, the weekly reward program for those who renew their season tickets online via HerdZone.com during the renewal period has returned. Everyone who renews today will be entered to win a complimentary season parking upgrade. The winner will be announced tomorrow.

After today, season ticket holders will be entered into weekly drawings (based on when they renew) to win free tickets or Marshall-themed prizes.

Herd fans must renew online to enter the drawings. Renewing early will enter the ticket holder to win that week’s prize and for every week thereafter. Various prizes include limited edition Marshall Quarterback Club gear, a signed Marshall Football, away game tickets and the new 2022 Marshall Football black helmet.

The highlight of this program will be the Week 3 prize (must renew by 11:59 p.m. ET on Sunday, April 3 to enter), which will consist of four (4) complimentary tickets to the Marshall at Notre Dame football game, scheduled for September 10, 2022.

All away game information, including ticket information for that game, will be released in the coming weeks.
