As a junior at Andalusia High, Marshall helped the Bulldogs win a Class 4A state championship with six tackles and half a sack in the title-game victory. Marshall finished the season with 34 stops, including 9-1/2 for a loss, and recovered a fumble.

Marshall took an official visit to Tech the first weekend of June. He is considered a top-40 prospect in Alabama according to the 247Sports Composite.

Tech now has eight verbal commitments toward the 2024 signing class which ranks 33rd nationally, according to the 247Sports Composite.
