Marshall has no indoor eligibility remaining for LSU since the NCAA decided not to give 2020 indoor track and field seniors another year of eligibility even though the 2020 NCAA Indoor Championships never took place. Marshall will be eligible to compete for LSU once the outdoor season gets started.
