The Bearcats advanced to postseason play in each of his 16 seasons, reaching the Elite Eight of the NCAA Tournament three times and in 1992, appearing in the Final Four. Huggins directed Cincinnati to 10 conference regular season titles and eight league tournament titles. Huggins directed the Bearcats to successive finishes in the Final Four and Elite Eight. Over the ensuing seasons, he developed young and inexperienced squads with as many as three freshmen starters into squads that captured two more league titles and made another pair of NCAA appearances. Huggins surprised the basketball world in 1998 by directing a team that had only one returning starter to a 27-6 record, conference regular season and tournament titles, a No. 2 seed in the NCAA Tournament and a Top 10 finish in the polls. Huggins’ 2002 team, unranked when the season began, posted a 31-4 record, setting a Cincinnati mark for victories. Huggins has also directed star-studded teams, while developing the individual talents of players such as consensus All-Americans Danny Fortson, Kenyon Martin and Steve Logan, to a succession of conference championships and NCAA tournament runs. Huggins has achieved similar success on the recruiting trails. He signed three No. 1-rated junior college players and five McDonald’s All-Americans to Cincinnati, while six of his last nine recruiting classes ranked among the nation’s Top 10. His 2007 recruiting class at Kansas State was ranked No. 1 in the country by several outlets, Rivals.com, Scout.com and Sports Illustrated. Huggins’ first West Virginia recruiting class earned a Top 10 ranking by several scouting services. Huggins earned the Ray Meyer Award as the Conference USA Coach of the Year a record three times (1998, 1999 and 2000), and was a unanimous choice as the Conference USA Coach of the Decade. He was selected as national coach of the year by ESPN.com in 2002. He was named co-national coach of the year by The Sporting News in 2005 and was Basketball Times’ National Coach of the Year in 1998. He earned national coach of the year recognition from Hoop Scoop in 1992 and Playboy in 1993. In 2002, Huggins suffered a major heart attack on the last Saturday of September but was present for the team’s first practice two weeks later and coached the Bearcats with the same intensity that has become his trademark. The 2003-04 season was business as usual for Huggins, who piloted the Bearcats to
Conference USA regular season and tournament titles and an NCAA tourney berth while amassing a 25-7 record. Prior to Cincinnati Huggins earned his first head coaching assignment at Walsh College (now University), an NAIA school in North Canton, Ohio, in 1980 at the age of 27. A program with just two winning seasons in the previous 17 years, Huggins transformed the Cavalier program into one of the best in the NAIA ranks in just three short seasons. He compiled a 71-26 record (.732) from 1980 to 1983, twice guiding the team to the postseason, including their first-ever NAIA national tournament appearance. After coaching the team to 14 victories in his first season, Huggins helped produce a 23-9 record in his sophomore campaign and an NAIA district playoff appearance in 1981-82, which includes the school’s first Mid-Ohio championship. His final team finished the regular season with a 30-0 record and a No. 2 national ranking before winning four more games to qualify for the program’s first-ever NAIA national tournament. The Cavaliers lost in the national tournament to Salem College, 65-63, to end the nation’s longest winning streak of 34. Huggins was twice named NAIA District 22 Coach of the Year following the 1982 and 1983 seasons. After a one-year stint as an assistant coach at Central Florida in 1983-84, Huggins accepted his first Division I head coaching position at Akron in 1984. He quickly resurrected another program that had fallen on difficult times, as he guided the Zips to a 97-46 (.678) overall record and to postseason play in three of his five seasons. The program posted 20 or more wins in a season on four occasions. After a 12-14 mark in his first season, Huggins led Akron to its first NCAA tournament appearance and conference title at the Division I level in 1986 with a 22-8 record. Winners of the Ohio Valley Conference regular season and tournament championship, the 15th-seeded Zips lost in the first round of the NCAA Tournament to fifth-seeded Michigan, 70-64. In guiding the team to its highest win total in 13 seasons, Huggins was named the Ohio Valley Conference Coach of the Year. He continued his success with the first of three consecutive 21-win seasons in 1987 and an appearance in the first round of the NIT. Huggins capped his five-year tenure at Akron in 1989 by helping the Zips to their second trip to the NIT in 1989 with a 21-8 record. While at Akron, Huggins coached Brian Roth, who earned All-America honors in 1985, while Eric McLaughlin earned Academic All-America honors in 1989. Three players earned first team all-conference honors during his tenure, including twotime selection and 1986 Ohio Valley Conference Player of the Year Marcel Boyce. McLaughlin was also named tournament MVP during the Zips’ run to the Ohio Valley tournament championship in 1986. After his playing career at West Virginia, Huggins began his coaching career as a graduate assistant at WVU for his college coach, Joedy Gardner, in 1977. He moved to Ohio State the following season to assist head coach Eldon Miller. During his two-year stint from 1978-80, Huggins helped the Buckeyes to a 40-20 (.667) record and a pair of postseason appearances, including the second round of the 1980 NCAA tournament. Playing Career Huggins was a three-year all-Ohio selection and the 1972 Ohio Player of the Year while playing for his father, Charles, at Indian Valley South High in Gnadenhutten, Ohio. He first attended Ohio University but transferred to West Virginia after his freshman season. Huggins was a three-year letterman for the Mountaineers under Gardner from 1975-77. As a senior and tri-captain, he helped the squad to an 18-11 overall record and a tie for the Eastern Collegiate Basketball League (ECBL) Western division title. In addition to helping the team earn its highest win total in nine seasons, he was named MVP after pacing the squad with 3.8 assists per game average. A two-time Academic All-American, Huggins graduated from West Virginia magna cum laude in 1977 and received his master’s in health administration from WVU in 1978. Huggins was born in Morgantown on Sept. 21, 1953. He and his wife, June, have two daughters, Jenna Leigh and Jacqueline.

LARRY HARRISON Associate Head Coach
Larry Harrison enters his 15th season on the Mountaineer basketball staff and 12th as associate head coach after he was promoted in July 2010. Harrison will be entering his 23rd season overall on Bob Huggins’ coaching staff after spending eight seasons with him at Cincinnati. He came to West Virginia from the Washington Wizards, where he served as a scout in 2006-07. He has more than 35 years of coaching experience. Since 1989, Harrison’s teams have earned 16 bids to the NCAA Tournament and three NIT bids. During Harrison’s tenure, Cincinnati advanced to the Final Four once (1992) and Elite Eight twice (1993, 1996). West Virginia won the 2010 Big East Championship and has advanced to 10 NCAA Tournaments, including the 2010 Final Four and five NCAA Sweet 16s. Harrison served as head coach at Hartford from 2000-06, earning America East Coach of the Year honors in 2006. He led Hartford to a third-place conference finish in 2002, 2003 and 2006 and semifinals of the conference tournament in 2002, 2003 and 2004. Hartford had the nation’s second-best total win increase from 2001 to 2002 with four wins in 2001 to 14 wins in 2002. Prior to Hartford, Harrison was an assistant under head coach Pat Kennedy at DePaul for three seasons (1997-2000). He previously served as an assistant coach at Cincinnati (1989-97) under Huggins, including the last four as associate head coach and recruiting coordinator. While at Cincinnati, Harrison assisted Huggins with the building of one of the most potent college basketball teams in the nation. During his eight years with the program, the Bearcats posted a 19271 record and won six conference championships. At UC, Harrison recruited and coached future NBA players Nick Van Exel, Corie Blount, Dontonio Wingfield and 1997 NBA first round draft pick Danny Fortson. He also recruited Ruben Patterson and Kenyon Martin, who was the consensus college basketball player of the year in 2001. Known as one of the top recruiters in the nation, Harrison’s recruiting classes have been ranked among the best in the nation on a regular basis. His 1998 recruiting class at DePaul was ranked as the No. 1 class in the nation by The Sporting News. During his last four years at Cincinnati, three of the Bearcat recruiting classes were ranked in the top 10, including the Bearcats’ 1996 recruiting class, which was regarded as the best in the nation. Prior to his stint at Cincinnati, Harrison was an assistant at American University in Washington, D.C., from 1986-89. He was also an assistant coach at Hillsborough Community College in Tampa, Fla., from 1984-86. He spent one season as an assistant coach at Henry Abbott Tech High (1978-79) in Danbury, Conn., and two seasons as an assistant at Jefferson High (1982-84) in Tampa. Harrison earned all-state honors at Henry Abbott Tech (Danbury, Conn.) as a senior before enrolling at Muskingum College where he earned all-Ohio conference honors as a freshman. After graduating from Pitt in 1978 with a degree in urban studies, he went on to earn a master’s degree from USF in education in 1982. A native of Greenville, N.C., who grew up in Danbury, Conn., Harrison has two daughters, Nyree and Tiffany, and a granddaughter, Aniyah Joy.

RON EVERHART Assistant Coach
West Virginia native Ron Everhart, who has more than 35 years experience as a basketball coach including 18 as a head coach, enters his 10th season as assistant basketball coach at West Virginia University. Everhart compiled a 273-261 record in 18 seasons as a head coach at Duquesne, Northeastern and McNeese State. The Fairmont, West Virginia, native came to West Virginia from Duquesne, where he spent six seasons as head coach and led the Dukes to consecutive postseason appearances in 2009, 2010 and 2011 At Duquesne (2007-12), he took a floundering program - one that won just three games in 2005-06 - to one that finished six points shy of an NCAA tournament bid in 2008-09 and was tied for first in the Atlantic 10 and receiving votes in the AP Top 25 at the midpoint of the 2010-11 season. After ending a streak of 13 consecutive losing seasons with a 17-13 record in 2007-08, Everhart’s Dukes posted a 21-13 mark in earning an NIT appearance in 2009. In 2010, Duquesne won 16 games in earning a College Basketball Invitational bid. In 2011, DU reeled off 11 wins in a row - including the first eight in Atlantic 10 play - and received votes in the Associated Press Top 25 for three consecutive weeks before finishing 19-13 and earning a second consecutive CBI bid. Everhart was named NABC District 4 Coach of the Year for his effort. His rebuilding effort at Duquesne took a great leap forward in 2008-09 as the Dukes finished 21-13 and made a National Invitation Tournament appearance. The 21 wins were the most since 1970-71, and the NIT bid marked Duquesne’s first postseason appearance since 1993-94. The 2008-09 season ended with a run to the Atlantic 10 Championship title game where the Dukes, who were picked to finish 12th in a preseason poll of league coaches, dropped a 69-64 decision to Temple. The finish was more surprising considering the Dukes began the season as one of the youngest teams in NCAA Division I with eight scholarship freshmen and one scholarship upperclassman on the opening day roster. Along the way, the Dukes defeated four NCAA tournament teams and posted a winning record in Atlantic 10 play (9-7) for just the fourth time in 32 seasons as a conference member. The `09 Dukes ended a 24-game losing streak against ranked teams with a 72-68 win over No. 9 (AP) Xavier during the regular season. It was DU’s first win over a ranked team since 1997 and first over a top 10 team since 1992. The ninth-ranked Musketeers were also the highest ranked team to fall to Duquesne since 1974. In 2010-11, the Dukes jumped into the upper echelon of the Atlantic 10 in earning one of four opening round byes at the A-10 Championship in Atlantic City. The ‘11 Dukes, who led the nation in assists (17.8), steals (9.9) and turnover margin (+6.7) went on to post the school’s first postseason win since the 1994 with a CBI first round win at Montana. Duquesne was the only team in the tournament to win a road game. In 2007-08, Everhart led the Dukes to the school’s first winning record in 14 seasons with a 17-13 mark. The `08 Dukes ranked in the top 10 nationally in blocked shots (7.3, 3rd), assists (18.1, 3rd), scoring (82.3, 5th) and steals (9.4, 9th) in setting school single-season records for blocks (220), assists (539) and steals (283). The `08 Dukes put together winning streaks of six and five games, marking the first time since 1961-62 that a Duquesne team had two streaks of five or more wins in the same year. DU, which opened the season with six straight wins for the school’s best start since 1979-80, went 11-4 at home. It was just the second time in the past 27 years that a Duquesne team won 11 or more at home. Everhart, who inherited a program coming off a school record-worst 3-24 season (308 RPI) in 2005-06, started from the ground up, totally retooling the roster in his first six weeks on the job. The nine first-year scholarship players Everhart brought to Pittsburgh were just getting acquainted when the program was dealt an unprecedented blow as five players were injured in a shooting less than a month before the opening of practice. The Dukes picked up the pieces to post 10 wins, tie a 26-year-old school record for consecutive Atlantic 10 victories (five) and rank 21st nationally in scoring offense at 78.3 points per game. The Duquesne story of perseverance was acknowledged by the United States Basketball Writers Association, which honored the 2006-07 Dukes with its Most Courageous Award presented annually to honor “a player, coach, official or administrator who has demonstrated extraordinary courage reflecting honor on the sport of amateur basketball.”
At Northeastern (2002-06), he inherited a program that averaged fewer than nine wins in the six seasons prior to his arrival and produced 19, 21 and 19 victories in his final three years. In his five seasons at Northeastern, the Huskies averaged 16.4 wins. His 2004-05 team, which finished second in the America East Conference with a 15-3 record (21-10 overall), advanced to the postseason conference tournament championship game where it lost to NCAA Tournament Cinderella Vermont. The `05 Huskies went on to earn an NIT bid - marking Northeastern’s first postseason appearance in 14 years. In 2005-06, he led the Huskies to a 19-11 record and 12-6 mark in the Colonial Athletic Association. His starting point guard, Jose Juan Barea, was named CAA Player of the Year and forward Shawn James earned Defensive Player of the Year honors. At McNeese State (1995-2001), Everhart ended a streak of six consecutive sub.500 seasons by leading the Cowboys to a 15-12 mark in 1995-96 - his second season at the Lake Charles, La., school. His seven-year stay culminated with a 22-9 record and Southland Conference regular-season title in 2000-01. The 2000-01 Cowboys, who won 19 of their last 20 games before losing the Southland Conference championship game by a point, earned the school’s first postseason bid in 12 years when they accepted an invitation to the NIT. Prior to accepting the head coaching job at McNeese State, Everhart spent six seasons as an assistant under Perry Clark at Tulane. At Tulane (1988-94), Everhart played a major role in resurrecting a Green Wave program that had disbanded from 1985-86 through 1988-89. He recruited three straight Metro Conference Freshman of the Year award-winners and accompanied the Green Wave to NCAA Tournament appearances in 1991-92 and 1992-93. A 1985 graduate of Virginia Tech, Everhart got his start as a college coach as a graduate assistant for Bobby Cremins’ 1985-86 NCAA Tournament Sweet 16 Georgia Tech team. He then moved on to Virginia Military Institute for two seasons (1986-87 and 1987-88) before arriving at Tulane. Everhart played his final season of high school basketball for the legendary Morgan Wootten at DeMatha Catholic High in Hyattsville, Md., where he earned first team Catholic Prep All-America honors. Prior to attending DeMatha, Everhart was a basketball and baseball letterman at his hometown Fairmont West High. Everhart was a four-year letterman at Virginia Tech and served as captain of the Hokies’ 1984-85 NCAA Tournament team. He graduated from Tech in 1985 with a bachelor of arts degree in political science. Everhart and his wife, Mirchana, who was born and raised in Grafton, W.Va., are the parents of twins Ronnie and Gianna.

Assistant Coach
MARTIN
Erik Martin, who was named to The Athletic’s list of 25 College Basketball Assistants Ready to Lead Their Own Program in 2020 and 30 Coaches to Watch in 2018, is in his 16th season as a Division I coach. He enters his 15th season as an assistant coach at West Virginia University and is in his 19th season of coaching. During Martin’s 15 years in Morgantown, his impact has extended into the community. From 2007-19, he organized the United Way Clinic in Fairmont, West Virginia, which paired WVU newcomers with youth from the Fairmont area. From 2016-18, he teamed with Nate Zinn and Donnie Tucker to host Mountaineer Days. This event linked the WVU men’s basketball team with youth from Fairmont and Morgantown in a day of multiple activities that benefited the youth as well as the WVU men’s basketball team. In 2021, he established a non-profit foundation, Helping Hand Charities WV, a mission of aiding children from single-parent homes as well as underprivileged youth. Coach Martin’s community involvement is a direct reflection of his passion for working with youth and connecting them with the WVU community. Martin, a former professional player and all-conference performer at Cincinnati, will be entering his 18th season – two as a player and 16 as an assistant – under head coach Bob Huggins. As a Division I assistant, Martin has worked with numerous professional players, including five NBA players (All-American Kevin Jones, Joe Alexander, Devin Ebanks, Bill Walker and Cartier Martin) as well as Derek Culver, Sagaba Konate, Devin Williams and John Flowers. Since coming to West Virginia in 2007, the Mountaineers won the 2010 Big East Championship and have advanced to 10 NCAA Tournament appearances, including the 2010 Final Four and five NCAA Sweet 16s. Martin has helped guide the Mountaineers to 310 victories. At West Virginia, Martin is responsible for post player development as well as assisting with game scouts and recruiting. Martin has also been involved in scheduling, camps, fundraising and community appearances during his time in Morgantown. Martin came to West Virginia after spending a year as an assistant at Kansas State with Huggins. Prior to his stint at Kansas State, he spent two years as an assistant coach at Cincinnati State and Technical College in Cincinnati for head coach Andre Tate from 2004-06. In 2005-06, he helped the Surge post a 26-9 overall record en route to winning the Ohio Community College Athletic Conference and NJCAA Region XII District 7 tournament titles. The program advanced to the NJCAA Division II championship where it lost to eventual national runner-up Kirkwood (Iowa) Community College to finish fifth nationally. Martin helped coach several outstanding players at Cincinnati State, including Cincinnati signee John Williamson, who was named a first team NJCAA All-American and the Ohio Community College Athletic Conference Player of the Year. Williamson was one of four players to move on to the Division I level from CSC, including Steve Horton (Ball State), Jarelle Redden (Ball State) and T.K. Washington (Detroit). In addition, the school produced four all-conference and three all-district honorees. Martin jumped into the coaching ranks at Jacobs Center High in Cincinnati, where he served as the junior varsity coach and assistant varsity coach from 2003-04. A standout power forward, Martin was a two-year letterman and one-year starter for Huggins at Cincinnati from 1991-93. He signed with TCU out of high school and redshirted as a true freshman in 1989-90. Martin transferred to Santa Ana (Calif.) Community College for one season before moving to Cincinnati the next two seasons. He helped guide the Bearcats to a combined 56-10 overall record en route to Final Four and Elite Eight appearances and back-to-back Great Midwest Conference regular season and tournament championships from 1991-93. Playing with All-American Herb Jones and future NBA stars Corie Blount and Nick Van Exel, Martin helped Cincinnati to a 29-5 overall record and the 1992 NCAA Final Four. In his senior year, Martin guided Cincinnati to the NCAA Tournament where the fourth-ranked Bearcats lost in overtime to eventual national champion North Carolina in the East Regional finals.

No. 15 West Virginia got a career-high 23 points from Deuce McBride to outlast pesky South Dakota State 79-71 in its season-opening game in the Bad Boy Mowers Crossover Classic at the Sanford Pentagon in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. McBride, a sophomore from Cincinnati, made 9-of19 field goal attempts and all four of his free throw attempts. Junior guard Sean McNeil overcame a 1-for-7 shooting start to finish with a career-high 16, ending the night making 5 out of his final 9 field goal attempts. Taz Sherman contributed 14 points on 4-of-9 shooting coming off the bench. Derek Culver pulled down a game-high 14 rebounds, but West Virginia’s advantage on the glass was only 41-39. Oscar Tshiebwe got into early foul trouble and finished with just 7 points and three rebounds in 14 minutes of action. “The way they play kind of led to a lot of long rebounds because everything is so much penetrate and pitch and shooting 3s,” West Virginia coach Bob Huggins said. “It was different kind of rebounding than what we’re kind of used to.” Douglas Wilson led the Jackrabbits with 17 points and Noah Freidel added 16. SDSU was picked by many to win the Summit League. “I think they’re really good,” Huggins said. “They are extremely well coached. They make shots. They really do a good job of handling the ball and creating shots for one another.” West Virginia (1-0) struggled out the outset to make open shots and trailed 19-14 following Wilson’s three-point play. The Mountaineers used an 8-3 run to tie the game at 22, and eventually took a 25-24 lead on Sherman 3 from the right wing with 6:36 left in the first half. McNeil’s first three with 3:31 remaining gave the Mountaineers a four-point advantage and a McBride three-point play with 38 seconds left boosted the margin to seven, 37-30. West Virginia’s biggest lead of the game was 12, 52-40, with 14:37 remaining, but SDSU quickly whittled it to six. WVU’s margin remained in the six-point range until a Wilson layup with 5:56 to go reduced it to four, 68-64. WVU’s lead was four again with 1:50 left when Wilson converted another layup and added a free throw after he was fouled by Gabe Osabuohien while driving to the basket. Osabuohien answered a with a big baseline bucket and McNeil tacked on another field goal with 23 seconds left to push the margin back to eight. West Virginia was just 8-of-32 from 3 and finished the game 30-of-77 overall for 39%. SDSU was 27-of-62 for 43.5% and outscored WVU 34-28 in the paint.

Recap
West Virginia’s powerful inside duo of Derek Culver and Oscar Tshiebwe were simply too much for VCU in the second semifinal game of the Bad Boy Mowers Crossover Classic in the Sanford Pentagon in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Culver scored 23 points and grabbed 15 rebounds and Tshiebwe added 11 points and 16 boards to lead the 15th-ranked Mountaineers to a 78-66 victory over the Rams. Against VCU, Culver was 8-of-14 from the floor and 7-for-9 from the free throw line for his 23 points - two shy of his career-high 25 scored against Rhode Island during his freshman season. “We’ve been trying to get Derek to slow down and when he slows down like he did today, you can see how effective he can be,” West Virginia coach Bob Huggins said. The story of the game was West Virginia’s work on the offensive glass. The Mountaineers grabbed 23 offensive rebounds and turned that into 25 secondchance points. WVU had an overall 52-35 advantage on the glass. That offset the 21 Mountaineer turnovers the Rams managed to force off of their full-court pressure defense. VCU got 13 steals out of it resulting in 22 fast-break points. WVU (2-0) shot a little better from the field than it did in its opening victory over South Dakota State, connecting on 41.3% of its field goal attempts, and a lot of that can be attributed to fewer 3-point attempts. After jacking 32 3s in its season opener against SDSU, West Virginia attempted half that many, making six for 37.5%. “I thought we did a better job offensively, although we turned it over 21 times compared to three last night,” Huggins said. “We can’t turn it over 21 times and continue to win. We’ve got to take better care of the ball. “That’s the statistic that stands out,” he added. “I thought we did a good job on the glass; Derek kept balls alive and scored close to kind of give us the lead before our perimeter guys kind of warmed up. When they started making shots we were able to stretch the lead and get a little bit more comfortable.” Back-to-back transition 3s by Taz Sherman and Sean McNeil in the second half broke open a six-point WVU lead. McNeil contributed his second straight 16-point effort while Sherman came off the bench to score 9. Deuce McBride added 12 but was tagged with four turnovers. Sherman and backup point guard Jordan McCabe also turned the ball over four times against VCU’s full-court pressure. The Rams got 13 points from guard Bones Hyland and 11 off the bench from Vince Williams. VCU (1-1) shot just 35.9% from the floor and only 14.3% from 3-point range, the Rams connecting on only 3 of their 21 triples.

No. 15 West Virginia overcame a 10-point second half deficit to defeat Western Kentucky 70-64 to win the 2020 Bad Boy Mowers Crossover Classic championship at the Sanford Pentagon in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Tournament MVP Derek Culver scored 15 points in his head-to-head matchup with touted Western Kentucky center Charles Bassey, who also scored 15. Culver scored 45 points in the three tournament games and the Mountaineers needed all 15 in this game, especially down the stretch after the Hilltoppers took a 45-35 lead with 15:37 remaining on a Bassey dunk. Culver immediately answered with a layup to key a 17-7 Mountaineer run to tie the game with 8:39 left on Deuce McBride’s layup. A defensive stop led to a Taz Sherman 3, and McBride added two free throws to boost the lead to 57-52. Sean McNeil’s only 3 of the game in transition expanded the lead to nine, 64-55, with 3:57 to go. A Bassey tip-in with 59 seconds remaining trimmed WVU’s lead to four, 66-62, but free throws by McBride and McNeil put the game away for West Virginia. “We didn’t guard anybody in the first half and kind of let them do what they wanted to do and then in the second half when we started getting under them a little bit we made them score the ball over us the game gets a little bit harder,” West Virginia coach Bob Huggins said. McBride, who contributed 14 points, was named to the all-tournament team, but senior forward Gabe Osabuohien was the top complimentary guy. Osabuohien played a tremendous all-around game today with 8 points, eight rebounds, five assists, a steal and a block. It was Osabuohien’s effort at both ends of the floor that really keyed West Virginia’s comeback victory. Sherman came off the bench to score 12, his second-double digit performance of the season. Sophomore forward Oscar Tshiebwe had another rough outing with just 5 points to go along with seven rebounds. In three games so far this year, the Naismith Award candidate has scored 7, 11 and 5 points in the Mountaineers’ three victories. “We’ve got to get Oscar going,” Huggins said. West Virginia once again limited its 3-point attempts after trying 32 in the season opener against South Dakota State. WVU tried just 12, making five, after trying only 16 in the victory over VCU. Western Kentucky (2-1) shot just 43.5% from the floor and was limited to just eight free throw attempts. In WKU’s first two wins against Northern Iowa and Memphis, it attempted 55 free throws, making 46.

Joel Ayayi’s 21 points rallied No. 1-ranked Gonzaga to an 87-82 come-from-behind victory over 11th-ranked West Virginia in the opening game of the Jimmy V Classic in Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, Indiana. Gonzaga’s superior depth and second-half shooting helped it overcome a 39-34 halftime deficit. “We had every opportunity in the world to come out of here with a win, and we kind of gave it away,” West Virginia coach Bob Huggins said afterward. “Missed free throws, missed layups, turning the ball over without being pressured, not throwing the ball to open people. We’ve got a lot of things to fix. But the positive thing is they are all things that are fixable.” As it did in its first two wins of the season against Kansas and Auburn, Gonzaga really turned it on in the second half, making 21 of its 34 second-half field goal attempts for 61.8% - matching its second-half shooting for the season. It also shot extremely well in its first two wins against the Jayhawks and Tigers. Huggins said his bigs consistently were beaten to the spot on ball screens and the guards were unable to get through screens to help. The game was at West Virginia’s pace until about the 10-minute mark of the second half when the Zags finally began scoring transition points as the Mountaineers began to tire. West Virginia’s last lead came with 6:43 remaining, 67-65, on two Taz Sherman free throws, and it was still a two-point game with five minutes to go before the Zags used an Ayai put-back basket and a Corey Kispert 3 to give them a 78-71 advantage. The margin swelled to 86-77 on another Ayayi layup off of a Jalen Suggs steal. A late WVU flurry got it to four, and it could have become a one-possession game when Derek Culver was fouled with 18 seconds to go, but the junior couldn’t get his free throw to go down. Culver missed five of his 11 attempts from the line while the rest of the team was an impressive 23-of-24 from the charity stripe. Another big factor was Mountaineers bigs Oscar Tshiebwe and Gabe Osabuohien getting into foul trouble in the second half. Tshiebwe’s night ended with 7:26 to go, and Osabuohien joined him on the bench four minutes later. Culver, who finished with 18 points and 15 rebounds, also played a good portion of the second half with four fouls. Freshman Isaiah Cottrell was pressed into emergency action when Tshiebwe’s night was finished, and he performed well, scoring six points in 11 minutes of action. Tshiebwe finished 14 points and nine rebounds and Osabuohien added 10 points and three boards. Gonzaga’s big guns, Corey Kispert (19 points) and Drew Timme (17 points), were held below their season averages, but Florida transfer Andrew Nembhard picked up the slack with 19. West Virginia was seeking its sixth victory against college basketball’s No. 1-ranked team, with two of those coming under Huggins.

Guard Miles McBride flirted with a triple-double in 11th-ranked West Virginia’s come-from-behind 80-71 victory over Georgetown in a Big 12-Big East Battle game played at McDonough Arena in Washington, D.C. The sophomore guard scored a team-high 17 points, grabbed seven rebounds and handed out seven assists in the nine-point victory over West Virginia’s former Big East rival. Georgetown (1-2) led 34-32 at halftime and had a six-point lead with 13:33 left after a Timothy Ighoefe layup. But McBride answered with a 3 to ignite a ninepoint run that included a couple of dunks by Oscar Tshiebwe and Emmitt Matthews Jr., and some free throws by Tshiebwe. With the scored tied at 62, Taz Sherman hit a big 3 and Derek Culver followed with a couple of free throws to build the margin to five. A defensive stop led to another Culver basket, and Sherman added two more to push the lead out to nine with 3:20 left. The advantage swelled to 10 on Matthews’ 3 from the right wing with 1:53 remaining. That was Matthews’ only 3 of the game, although he contributed a season-best 13 points to go with four rebounds. At one point in the second half, Huggins had his team in a zone defense despite being primarily a man-to-man coach. Culver, despite early foul trouble, contributed 14 points and nine rebounds in just 18 minutes of action. He finished with three fouls in a recurring earlyseason theme that has seen West Virginia’s bigs continually getting into foul trouble. Oscar Tshiebwe finished with nine points and six rebounds despite his three fouls, and Gabe Osabuohien failed to score in a game in which he was saddled with four fouls. West Virginia (4-1) shot 40.6% from the floor for the game, but connected on 16 of its 32 field goal attempts in the second half to outscore the Hoyas by 11 after intermission. Georgetown got a game-high 19 points from guard Jahvon Blair. The senior hit 5-of-12 from 3-point distance as the Hoyas were 11-of-30 from behind the arc. Jamorko Pickett added 11 points and eight rebounds. Sherman once again provided a big spark coming off the bench with 12 points on 4-of-9 shooting. Jordan McCabe also gave West Virginia a boost off the bench with five points to spell McBride. West Virginia outscored Georgetown at the free throw line 22 to 10 and also forced 15 Hoya turnovers resulting in a 21 to four advantage in points off turnovers. Georgetown managed to hold its own on the glass by matching West Virginia’s 43 rebounds. West Virginia’s victory trimmed Georgetown’s lead to one, 27-26, in a longtime series that dates back to 1922. West Virginia last played at Georgetown in 2014 when it lost to the Hoyas in the first round of the NIT.

No. 11 West Virginia rallied from eight points down in the first half to defeat feisty North Texas 6250 in its home opener at the WVU Coliseum. The Mean Green (1-3) agreed to play the game on short notice when Robert Morris was unable to play two days earlier because of COVID-19 issues within the Colonial program. Last year’s regular-season Conference USA champs had the Mountaineers down by 10 with nine seconds to go in the first half before a late Deuce McBride layup trimmed the deficit to eight at the break. “We were less than ready to play, obviously,” West Virginia coach Bob Huggins said. For most of the first half, West Virginia (5-1) couldn’t buy a basket and allowed the Mean Green to score layup after layup late in the first half. WVU used an 18-0 run to begin the second half and never trailed the rest of the way. North Texas was held without a field goal for the first seven minutes as WVU built a 13-point lead, but the Mean Green went on a mini-run with five minutes to go to cut the Mountaineers’ lead to 49-45. A McBride pull-up jumper with 4:18 to go stopped the run. Two Taz Sherman free throws with 43 seconds left got the lead back to 10. Sean McNeil, coming into the game shooting 27.3%, made 5-of-9 today for a team-high 15 points, which was encouraging. Derek Culver had his 19th career double-double with 10 points and 10 rebounds. All 10 of Culver’s points came in the second half. “Honestly, the turnaround was putting (Culver) back into the game and him actually wanting to play in the second half,” Huggins said. “We threw the ball to him and he scored. “They can’t guard him and now it’s two-on-one and three-on-one in the post,” Huggins said. “We need to be able to do more than just throw the ball to him when we’re in trouble.” Sherman came off the bench to score 13. “I thought Taz was really good. I think he gives us somebody really solid and somebody who can make an open shot,” Huggins said. “And Gabe (Osabuohien) defensively was outstanding.” Guard Javion Hamlet led North Texas with 15 points. Forward Thomas Bell added 12. West Virginia shot just 37.7% from the floor while North Texas shot worse at 34.5%. The Mountaineers out-rebounded the Mean Green 48-32.

No. 11 West Virginia used a 29-10 run to end the first half to dispose of 19th-ranked Richmond 87-71 at the WVU Coliseum. Sophomore guard Miles McBride scored 20 points on 9-of-11 shooting, while junior forward Derek Culver produced his 20th career double-double with 10 points and 11 rebounds in easily the Mountaineers’ best showing of the season. The final 10 minutes of the first half were certainly Final Four caliber for the Mountaineers. Huggins took McBride out early in favor of Jordan McCabe, who hit a couple of big 3s, and when he put McBride back into the game the sophomore put on a clinic to finish up the half with 16 points. After a couple of Souleymane Koureissi free throws pulled Richmond to within three with 8:24 remaining, the rest of the half turned into a Gold blur for the Spiders. McBride got the run going with a layup and a couple of Taz Sherman baskets made the lead 10. It swelled to 15 on a Culver basket and then to 18 on a McBride straight-away 3. A Sherman steal led to an Oscar Tshiebwe breakaway dunk and then another McBride steal at midcourt led to two more points with 1:13 left. Twenty seconds later, Sean McNeil’s turnaround jumper got the margin to 24. West Virginia’s biggest lead was 30 early in the second half before Huggins began substituting liberally. Richmond (4-1) outscored West Virginia 27-13 over the next 12 minutes, requiring Huggins to call timeout with 5:22 left to get his guys reorganized. He also put his starters back into the game and within the lead quickly returned to 20. West Virginia (6-1) shot 58.1% from the floor (36 of 62) including a sizzling 57.1% (8 of 14) from 3-point distance. McNeil continued his solid marksmanship by connecting on 5-of-8 to finish with 12, matching Oscar Tshiebwe’s 12. Sherman contributed 15 points on 5-of-7 shooting coming off the bench. The junior guard connected on three of his four 3-point attempts in a season-high effort. All 15 players dressed got into today’s game, including walk-on guards Spencer Macke and Jay Moore. Freshman Taj Thweatt scored his first two points late in the game and promising young center Seny Ndiaye logged a couple of minutes and was credited with an assist. Eight of West Virginia’s 12 turnovers came in the second half. The Spiders shot 40.4% overall and just 23.1% on their 18 3-point tries.

Eighth-rated West Virginia got a put-back basket by Taz Sherman and free throws from Deuce McBride and Emmitt Matthews Jr. to hold off upset-minded Iowa State 70-65 at the WVU Coliseum. West Virginia overcame Iowa State’s nine-point lead early in the second half in what turned out to be a root-canal-type game for the Mountaineers in their Big 12 opener. “We weren’t ready to play,” a subdued Huggins said afterward. “We were down there clowning around in warmups. You think they will take it a little more seriously or turn it around when the game starts … but they played harder than we did, they played more physical than we did and they ran their stuff better than we ran ours.” There were 16 lead changes and seven ties and neither team shot the ball well down the stretch. West Virginia missed seven of its final eight field goal attempts while Iowa State failed to make a field goal during the final three minutes of play. Before that, the Cyclones couldn’t miss mainly because of straight-line drives to the basket and penetrate-and-pitch 3s. Penn State transfer Rasir Bolton scored a gamehigh 25 points on 9-of-17 shooting. Guard Jalen Coleman-Lands added 11 as the Cyclones shot 49.1% for the game. Iowa State’s shooting percentage was well above 50% for most of the game. Iowa State’s biggest lead was nine, 43-34, before the Mountaineers eventually began to chip away. WVU, which made just 7-of-15 from the free throw line in the first half, got back into the game by making its free throws in the second half. Iowa State committed 29 fouls leading to 37 West Virginia free throws while the Cyclones went to the line just nine times, making only six. WVU made 18-of-22 in the second half, which was the difference in the game. From the floor, West Virginia shot just 38.2% as Huggins rotated his backcourt players looking for somebody to get a hot hand to compliment point guard Deuce McBride. He finally settled on Sherman, who finished with 10 points including the deciding field goal with 51 seconds remaining. Double-double machine Derek Culver had another one with a team-high 18 points and 12 rebounds, while McBride overcame a slow start to match Culver’s 18. Tshiebwe contributed 12 points and five rebounds. Iowa State committed 21 turnovers including a couple of critical ones late in the game after Sherman’s follow-up basket left gave West Virginia its first lead of the second half. WVU outscored Iowa State 23-9 off of those 21 Cyclone turnovers.

Christian Braun’s 22 points led No. 3-ranked Kansas to a 79-65 victory over No. 7 West Virginia at Allen Fieldhouse in Lawrence, Kansas. The Jayhawks bombed away from three by hitting 16-of-37 from behind the arc in administering West Virginia its worst loss of the season. “We put a 3-2 zone in to try and keep them from penetrating and I thought that was pretty effective in the first half and then we had some breakdowns,” West Virginia coach Bob Huggins said. Braun was 6-of-12 from three, Jalen Wilson made four and Ochai Agbaji and Marcus Garrett hit three each for the Jayhawks. “They had a great night and we didn’t have a great night,” Huggins added. Sean McNeil’s torrid outside shooting in the first half kept the Mountaineers in it, and his bank-shot three right before the end of the first half gave them a 36-35 lead. McNeil hit all six of his first-half threes and was seven of seven overall for 20 points at intermission. After the break, Kansas permitted him to make only two baskets to finish with a game-high 24. The game turned in Kansas’ favor when guard Miles McBride picked up three quick fouls in the second half and was forced to go to the bench with 15:50 remaining and West Virginia trailing 46-44. When he finally got back into the game, the Kansas lead was 10 and quickly swelled to 15. The Jayhawks’ biggest lead was 22 with 4:16 left on a Garrett three. Overall, Kansas shot three percentage points better than West Virginia’s 41% from the floor, but the Jayhawks doubled up the Mountaineers from behind the three-point arc, several of those coming after initial misses. “The ones they missed bounced out to the threepoint line and they chased them down and we kind of stood there and watched them do it,” Huggins said. “They got a ton of rebounds that bounced out long.” Kansas out-rebounded West Virginia 40-37 and outscored the Mountaineers 25-to-14 in second chance points. The Jayhawks had 19 assists on their 28 field goals while West Virginia had only 10 assists on its 26 field goals. Wilson contributed 17 points, Garrett scored 15, Agbaji 11 and center David McCormack added 10 points and a game-high 11 rebounds. McBride was the only other West Virginia player to reach double figures with 19 points on 8-of-16 shooting. West Virginia’s inside tandem of Derek Culver and Oscar Tshiebwe combined to shoot just five-of-14 for 11 points. Culver scored eight points and grabbed eight rebounds. “We tried to throw it close and we didn’t play through their physicality in the post,” Huggins said. “We threw it close to Oscar and he didn’t finish and Derek didn’t finish the way he has been finishing.” A limited capacity of 2,500 attended the game.

Derek Culver’s 18 points and Oscar Tshiebwe’s 12-point, 15-rebound double-double powered No. 9 West Virginia to a 73-51 victory over Northeastern at the WVU Coliseum. The Huskies had no answer for the Mountaineers’ superior size as they scored 50 of their 73 points in the paint. Forward Emmitt Matthews Jr. contributed 13 points and five rebounds to help West Virginia convert 57% of its field goal attempts inside the 3-point arc. “We weren’t very consistent,” West Virginia coach Bob Huggins said afterward. “We didn’t rebounded the ball as consistently as we need to, we didn’t guard as consistently as we need to and the ball keeps sticking.” Beyond it, WVU was just 2-of-21, which is why it was just an eight-point game at halftime and a ninepoint game at the first media timeout of the second half. A flurry at the 15-minute mark got the lead to 13 and another one at the nine-minute mark expanded it to 20. And all of it was near the basket. Huggins made an interesting observation during his postgame radio show. When his team makes at least 260 passes in a game it has won all eight. In both of its losses this year to Gonzaga and Kansas, West Virginia made 220 passes or fewer, meaning too much dribbling on the perimeter before jacking up long shot attempts. When the lead finally got to a comfortable margin, Huggins was able to get some of his younger players into the game, which he was unable to do in its first nine games. Jalen Bridges and Kedrian Johnson got nine minutes each, and freshman Taj Thweatt saw six minutes of court time. Unfortunately, Isaiah Cottrell, another freshman Huggins wanted to get extended minutes, suffered a non-contact ankle injury in the first half and did not return. The game ended with walk-ons Spencer Macke and Jay Moore getting some rare court time. For Tshiebwe, it was the second double-double for the sophomore this season and the 12th for his career. West Virginia (8-2) limited Northeastern to only 33.3% shooting and forced the Huskies to commit 19 turnovers. Johnson was credited with a team-best three steals in his abbreviated second-half work. Northeastern got a team-best 13 points from Quirin Emanga. Leading scorer Tyson Walker, who came into the game averaging 17 points, was held to just 10 on four-of-10 shooting. The game was scheduled prior to Christmas in place of Buffalo. The Bulls were not able to play due to COVID-19 protocols in their program.

Umoja Gibson’s 29 points led Oklahoma to a 7571 victory over No. 9 West Virginia at the Lloyd Noble Center in Norman, Oklahoma. Gibson, 6-1 junior guard from Waco, Texas, made 8-of-11 from 3-point range and was 10-of-14 overall from the floor. At one point in the second half, Gibson made three consecutive 3s and a fourth was later ruled a twopointer when West Virginia was making its furious comeback. The Mountaineers (8-3, 1-2) dug themselves a deep hole in the first half by hitting just 7 of their 30 field goal attempts. Freshman Jalen Bridges, making his first career start in place of the departed Oscar Tshiebwe, was the only West Virginia player who could consistently score, tallying 11 of his season-high 19 points in the first half. West Virginia used a smaller lineup consisting of guards Deuce McBride, Taz Sherman and Sean McNeil to make 9-of-14 from 3 in the second half, including a Sherman triple to tie the game at 49. The two teams traded 3s until Gibson’s 3 from the corner with 5:43 to go gave the Sooners a 60-55 advantage. A Sherman 3 and a Bridges basket tied the game at 60 before Austin Reaves answered with a jumper in the lane. A key sequence in the game happened with four minutes to go and the Sooners leading 62-60. Two missed Sooner 3s were rebounded by Brady Manek, and a third offensive possession ended with a Reeves 3 to make it a five-point game with 3:41 to go. The OU lead swelled to seven on a Gibson free throw. Two Emmitt Matthews Jr. free throws made it a one-possession game, 71-68, with 32 seconds to go. Then a Bridges basket with a second left got it to down to two before a pair of Jalen Hill free throws provided the winning margin. In addition to its 23 first-half misses, West Virginia also committed 12 of its 14 turnovers. Sherman finished with 19 points (all of them in the second half), Deuce McBride added 15 and Matthews contributed 11. A bright spot was the play of Bridges, who made 7-of-9 from the floor including 5-of-6 from 3, with three rebounds and an assist. Reaves scored 13 and De’Vion Harmon scored 10 for Oklahoma, now 6-2, 2-1. Neither team shot the ball particularly well overall, Oklahoma at 42% and West Virginia at 40%., but the Sooners got them to fall when they needed them to. The Sooners had a 41-36 advantage on the glass and had a 39-19 edge in bench points. West Virginia hasn’t won in Norman since 2018, and is now 2-7 all-time at the Noble Center.

No. 14 West Virginia rallied from 19 points down with 11 minutes to go to stun Oklahoma State 87-84 at Gallagher-Iba Arena in Stillwater, Oklahoma. For a second straight game, West Virginia battled back from a significant deficit. Two days earlier, the Mountaineers fought back from 18 down at Oklahoma to tie the game, but the Sooners held on for a 75-71 victory. Guard Deuce McBride got hot at the right time with a couple of massive 3s and Derek Culver rebounded from his poorest performance of the season at Oklahoma to have his best game of the season with 22 points and 19 rebounds. Culver was 10-of-19 from the floor and grabbed seven of his 19 boards on the offensive glass. Sixty-three of West Virginia’s 87 points came from Culver, McBride (21) and Taz Sherman (20), but Huggins thought the play of reserve guard Kedrian Johnson had the biggest impact in West Virginia’s comeback win. Huggins said Johnson was able to put more ball pressure on Oklahoma State’s guards on the defensive end of the floor, and offensively, he took over some of the ballhandling responsibilities from McBride which enabled him to score off the ball. As a result, McBride really came alive in the second half by scoring all but two of his 21 points. Oklahoma State, which led by 10 at halftime, was up 68-49 after two Rondel Walker free throws with 11:15 remaining. WVU went on a 15-1 run to cut the deficit to four, and then eventually whittled it down to two on a pair of McBride free throws with 3:50 left. A missed Isaac Likekele jumper was rebounded by Culver leading to a McBride 3 to give West Virginia a 76-75 lead – its first of the second half. Another defensive stop led to McBride’s second bomb from much farther out to make it a four-point game with 2:33 to go. After Cade Cunningham and Sherman traded baskets, it came down to free throws for the Mountaineers. Johnson and Sean McNeil got single charities to go down, and after Walker drilled a 3 to make it a one-point game, McBride made two big ones with 14 seconds left. Walker had an opportunity to tie the game with five seconds left, but his 3-point try was off the mark and Keylan Boone was unable to follow the miss. Oklahoma State’s freshman sensation Cade Cunningham, the nation’s No. 1-rated recruit, was as good as advertised by finishing with a game-high 25 points on 10-of-16 shooting before fouling out with 31 seconds to go and the Cowboys trailing 83-81. Likekele, who has been a Mountaineer nemesis throughout his career, contributed 22 for the Cowboys.

Andrew Jones’ 3-pointer with 1.8 seconds left sparked fourth-ranked Texas to a 72-70 come-frombehind victory over No. 14 West Virginia at the WVU Coliseum. The Mountaineers (9-4, 2-3) had an opportunity to knock off the Longhorns, leading by five with 1:28 remaining, but they couldn’t cash in at the free throw line at the end. After two Matt Coleman III free throws reduced West Virginia’s lead to 70-67, Derek Culver was fouled by Jericho Sims with 1:05 to go. Culver missed the front end of a one-and-one leading to Courtney Ramey’s driving layup. Emmitt Matthews Jr. grabbed a couple of missed shots, his second offensive rebound coming with 10 seconds left. However, Matthews missed both free throws, which would have put WVU ahead by three, leading to Jones’ game-winning triple from the corner. It was the Longhorn’s only 3-pointer of the second half. “We had the game in hand, we just needed to make some free throws,” West Virginia coach Bob Huggins said. “That’s a tough one to swallow.” West Virginia appeared to be in control of the game, leading by nine with 13 minutes to go when Taz Sherman was unable to get a contested backdoor dunk attempt to go down. That turned into a fourpoint swing when Kai Jones was fouled at the other end and made both free throws. Texas (10-1, 4-0) tied the game at 57 and kept it to within two possessions until the end. West Virginia led for all but seven minutes of the game, including a 40-36 margin at the break. Ramey was Texas’ top point-man with 19, connecting on 7 of his 11 shot attempts. Jones added 16, Coleman 13, Brown 12 and Kai Jones 10. Texas shot 46.6% overall, but was only 4-of-19 from 3 for 21.1%. West Virginia got 17 points off the bench from Sherman and 14 points and 16 rebounds from Culver, who in addition to going 2-of-6 from the line, was also only 6-of-16 from the floor. Sean McNeil contributed 14 and Miles McBride added 12 for the Mountaineers. The veteran coach tried to steal some additional rest time for Culver in the first half by inserting Seny Ndiaye into the game ahead of media timeouts, but Culver ended up logging 35 minutes of court time anyway. McBride also played big minutes with 37, which could have been a factor at the end of the game. Consequently, West Virginia made just 10 of its 34 field goal attempts in the second half for 29.4%, and its three second-half misses from the free throw line all occurred with less than a minute to go. Overall, the Mountaineers made 13 of 19 from the line. The game’s biggest disparity came in the paint where Texas outscored West Virginia 40-22.

Miles McBride scored 18 points and 14th-ranked West Virginia benefitted from 28 Kansas State turnovers to defeat the Wildcats 69-47 at Bramlage Coliseum in Manhattan, Kansas. The Mountaineers, idle for 14 days since losing 72-70 to Texas at the Coliseum on Jan. 9, shot 44% from the floor and were out-rebounded by 13, 36-24, but were never really threatened by a youthful and inexperienced K-State team. West Virginia (10-4, 3-3) jumped out to an early 21-4 lead and basically kept the margin at double figures for most of the game, with the exception of a brief moment early in the second half with the Wildcats reduced the Mountaineers’ lead to eight, 3628. But WVU answered with a quick flurry to push the lead back to 16. Taz Sherman was the catalyst with a pair of transition 3s, his second one coming with 13:58 remaining. McBride was the guy for West Virginia at the outset, scoring 12 of his game-high 18 points in the first half as part of a modified starting lineup that included Sherman, Jordan McCabe, Jalen Bridges and Derek Culver. Culver and regular forward Emmitt Matthews Jr. practiced for the first time since the interruption a day earlier and the layoff showed. Culver scored 8 points and grabbed only four rebounds in 21 minutes of action before fouling out with 3:54 to go. Matthews came off the bench to contribute 4 points and a pair of rebounds in only nine minutes of court time. Bridges stepped up with 12 points on 5-of-6 shooting, while Sherman contributed 10 – all in the second half. Senior guard Mike McGuirl scored 15 and freshman Selton Miguel added 10 for struggling Kansas State. West Virginia shot just 44% from the floor. “We’ve got to make open shots,” Huggins said. “If we make open shots we’re a pretty good team and when we don’t make open shots we’re going to struggle to try and have our defense carry us.” “In this league it’s a win and we’re back to even with a heck of a chance to gain some ground,” Huggins said. The 22-point victory was West Virginia’s biggest on the road in conference play since joining the Big 12 during the 2012-13 season. The Mountaineers won by 17 at Oklahoma State in 2017. It’s the biggest road win in conference play for the Mountaineers since they won at Seton Hall by 26 on Jan. 3, 2009 when they were still members of the Big East Conference. The 28 turnovers committed by Kansas State were the most ever by a Bruce Weber-coached team. The 28 turnovers were the most by a Power 5 Conference team in any game this season. The 28 turnovers were the most committed by a WVU opponent in its own arena in school history.

No. 10-ranked Texas Tech guard Mac McClung scored 30 points, but it turns out he needed 32 to defeat 11th-ranked West Virginia at the WVU Coliseum on Big Monday. McClung’s game-winning shot attempt at the buzzer left hit the back of the rim as the Mountaineers won an 88-87 thriller. It was Deuce McBride’s short jumper with 5.9 seconds remaining that lifted West Virginia. Just as it did 19 days earlier when it rallied from 18 points down in the second half at Oklahoma State, West Virginia made a furious rally late in the game with its best shooters on the floor with backup forward Gabe Osabuohien to do the screening, passing and rebounding. Texas Tech led 75-63 with 7:11 to go when West Virginia went to its Cardiac Kids. McBride answered a McClung jumper to make it a 10-point game. A Kedrian Johnson 3 with 6:25 left got the margin to seven, and then a minute later three McBride free throws made it a four-point game. Tech, which last played nine days earlier, scored four straight to push its lead back to eight, 79-71, but McBride answered with a big 3 from beyond the top of the key and Taz Sherman added a pair of free throws to make it a one-possession game with 4:23 left. Klyer Edwards for Texas Tech, and McNeil for West Virginia, traded 3s and the margin remained at 3 until McBride’s 3 tied the game at 84 with 1:36 remaining. Texas Tech retook the lead on McClung’s open 3 from the top of the key 26 seconds later and Sherman answered with a driving layup to pull West Virginia to within one with 50 seconds to go. Sherman rebounded Terrance Shannon’s miss and the Mountaineers called timeout with 16.5 seconds remaining to set up a final shot. Two more timeouts, one each by West Virginia and Texas Tech, were taken for additional strategy. Huggins eventually chose to clear out the right side of the floor for McBride, who hit a heavily contested shot near the basket. After McBride’s basket, McClung raced to the other end of the floor and got off a contested shot from the right corner falling away from the basket just ahead of the horn. WVU was 10-of-10 from the field in the final 9:30. At the outset, West Virginia appeared to be in control of the game leading 36-26, but the Red Raiders held the Mountaineers scoreless over the remaining 3:48 to tie the game at 39 at the break. McBride, in addition to his 24 points, grabbed seven rebounds, handed out six assists and made a steal. The two turnovers committed by Tech were the fewest by an opponent against the Mountaineers in school history. WVU improved to 8-1 against Tech in Morgantown. It was also Huggins’ 21st win against a top 10 team while at WVU.

Colin Castleton scored 21 points to lead Florida to an 85-80 come-from-behind victory over 11th-ranked West Virginia in the SEC/Big 12 Challenge at the WVU Coliseum. West Virginia led 42-37 at halftime and 44-37 at the start of the second half, but soon ran into trouble when guard Deuce McBride picked up his third foul with 18:47 left. The Gators (10-4) warmed up from 3-point distance to take the lead, 59-58, on Noah Locke’s triple. The two teams traded leads until another Locke 3 with 6:49 remaining put the Gators ahead 72-70. Two Castleton free throws pushed the Florida lead to four and it got to six, 81-75, with 3:22 remaining. A Sean McNeil 3 pulled the Mountaineers to within three and they eventually got it to one on Culver’s put-back basket with 1:40 to go. Castleton got two more free throws to go down at the other end to make the score 83-80. West Virginia had three different opportunities to tie the game. A desperation McNeil 3 following a Florida timeout didn’t draw iron, but the Mountaineers got the ball back when Castleton charged into Gabe Osabuohien. Following a West Virginia 30-second timeout, Florida forced a held ball when Derek Culver’s crosscourt pass was deflected and a scrum ensued on the floor. West Virginia used its final timeout with 42 seconds left, but its possession ended unsuccessfully when Taz Sherman couldn’t get his 3 to go down with 28 seconds to go. Tyree Appleby was fouled and made both free throws. The second half boiled down to shooting – Florida made 55.2% of its field goal attempts while West Virginia converted just 33.3%. The Gators were 7-of-11 from 3-point distance in the second half with Locke knocking down three of those. He finished with 19 and Appleby contributed 12. The loss spoiled a career-best effort from Culver, who made 7-of-11 from the floor and 14-of-17 from the free throw line for 28 points. Twenty-one of those came in the first half, however, and his only field goal of the second half came at 1:40. McNeil chipped in with 21, going 7-of-15 overall and 5-of-11 from 3. Sherman overcame a scoreless first half to finish with 11. Deuce McBride, who scored 24 including the game-winning basket against Texas Tech earlier in the week, finished with only 9 on 3-of-15 shooting. He did have nine assists. The Gators finished the game shooting 48.1% overall to West Virginia’s 39.7%. The two big specialty stats for Florida were fast break points (26 to 5) and points in the paint (35 to 22). The Mountaineers drop to 2-6 in the event since it was introduced eight years ago.

Taz Sherman’s 18 points powered 17th-ranked West Virginia to a 76-72 victory over Iowa State at Hilton Coliseum in Ames, Iowa. The Mountaineers (12-5, 5-3) appeared to be in control of this one leading by 15 with 10 minutes to go, but they failed to make a field goal over the final 5:46 to let the Cyclones back into this one. “This team doesn’t hold leads very well,” West Virginia coach Bob Huggins said afterward. “They stop guarding, relaxed and let their guard down. There were instances when they missed some, the ball bounced off the rim and our guys never moved.” West Virginia’s final seven points of the game came from the free throw line, including a pair from 59% foul shooter Derek Culver with 3:56 left and the Mountaineers leading by four. Leading by two, WVU got three free throws from Sherman when he was fouled by Tyler Harris while attempting a 3. Sherman put the game on ice when he came up with Rasir Bolton’s turnover and was fouled with six seconds left. He got both free throws to provide the game’s final margin. West Virginia made nine of its final 11 free throws and finished the game 17-of-24 for 70.8%. Huggins said they went back to a man defense when Iowa State had the ball with 15 seconds left trailing by two. Forward Gabe Osabuohien was able to hold his ground and force Bolton to turn the ball over. “We played point-drop, which was effective for a little while,” Huggins said. “The last (couple of possessions) desperation set in a little bit and we played a little bit harder but defense is about effort. Offense is about skill and when you are giving up 80 points like we’ve been giving up then you aren’t trying very hard.” West Virginia jumped out to an early 10-2 lead but then allowed Iowa State to go on an 11-0 run as the Cyclones led 24-17. The Mountaineers’ defense tightened up toward the end of the first half by forcing Iowa State to miss 11 of its final 13 shots of the half, resulting in a 42-31 WVU lead at the break. Culver contributed 13 points and a game-high 12 rebounds for his Big 12-leading ninth double-double of the season and the 25th of his career. Sean McNeil and Emmitt Matthews Jr. came off the bench to contribute 13 points each. Both teams committed 16 turnovers. West Virginia outrebounded Iowa State 45-32. Harris, Bolton and Solomon Young scored 15 for Iowa State (2-10). The Cyclones haven’t won since defeating Jackson State on Dec. 20. “There is no way this game should have come down to a defensive stop at the end to win it,” Osabuohien said, “We just need to be mentally locked in for 40 minutes and not just spurts.” The Mountaineers swept the season series against Iowa State and have now won five straight and 10 out of their last 12 regular season games against the Cyclones.

Levi Phillips, the guy who scored the first points in WVU Coliseum history 50 years ago, was at this game to watch West Virginia guard Deuce McBride score 31 points in the Mountaineers’ 91-79 victory over 23rdranked Kansas . McBride played a tremendous all-around game before a nationally televised audience with seven assists, seven rebounds and three steals, narrowly missing a triple-double, which Phillips once accomplished against Virginia Tech in 1974. Levi is one of only four players in WVU history to do so. McBride was 9-for-9 from the free throw line and made nine of his 16 field goal attempts, including four-of-five from 3. And McBride did this against college basketball’s reigning defensive player of the year in Kansas’ Marcus Garrett. Taz Sherman also played an outstanding complimentary game with 25 points on nine-of-17 shooting, while Derek Culver just missed another double-double with 19 points and nine rebounds. Culver did most of his damage in the first half when he scored 13 points to help 17th-ranked West Virginia build a 10-point halftime lead. Kansas (12-7, 6-5) needed just two minutes to completely erase West Virginia’s double-digit advantage, but the Mountaineers answered with two Culver free throws and a Sherman layup. It was a one-point game, 59-58, with 12:01 to go on Ochai Agbaji’s 3, but WVU responded with an Emmitt Matthews Jr. dunk, a McBride jumper and a McBride 3 to make it 68-62 with less than 10 minutes to go. West Virginia’s lead hovered in the five-to-sevenpoint range until Matthews drilled a wide-open 3 from the corner with 3:35 left. That put West Virginia ahead by 10. It was a matter of the Mountaineers making their free throws. McBride was four-for-four, Sherman hit a pair and Matthews made one of two down the stretch. Overall, West Virginia was 16-of-19 from the free throw line while shooting a sizzling 11-of-21 from 3-point distance. Garrett, one of five Kansas players to reach double figures, finished with a team-high 18 points. Forward David McCormack added 17 points and nine rebounds in his head-to-head matchup against Culver. Kansas committed 18 turnovers, which led to 26 West Virginia points. The Mountaineers assisted on 18 of their 32 field goals, while Kansas had just 12 assists on its 29 baskets. Huggins altered his starting lineup by using Matthews and freshman Jalen Bridges up front with Culver, and McBride and Sherman starting in the backcourt. West Virginia (13-5, 6-3) has won six of its last eight at the WVU Coliseum against Kansas and is 6-3 alltime against the Jayhawks in Morgantown. Local and state health officials permitted 1,500 fans to attend the game.

Fourteenth-ranked West Virginia got a career-high 26 points from emergency replacement Sean McNeil to defeat seventh-ranked Texas Tech 82-71 at United Supermarkets Arena in Lubbock, Texas. It was West Virginia’s first road win over a Top-10 ranked opponent since defeating No. 6 Virginia in Charlottesville in 2016. It was WVU’s first win over a Top-10 ranked conference opponent since winning at No. 9 Villanova in 2010 in a Big East game. The streaking Mountaineers only trailed for 1:42 of the game despite being without its third-leading scorer Taz Sherman, who did not play because of a groin injury suffered in practice a day earlier. WVU also played a large portion of the first half without McBride when he picked up a couple of quick early fouls, and then Derek Culver for a good chunk of the second half when he drew his fourth foul with 14:59 to go. The junior forward didn’t return to the floor until 5:04 remaining and West Virginia leading 65-63. Texas Tech’s leading scorer Mac McClung saw his night end when he drew his fifth personal with 1:03 left and the Red Raiders trailing by six. A total of 49 fouls were called on both teams, resulting in 59 free throws. McNeil was terrific, hitting eight-of-11 overall including five-of-seven from 3. His biggest triple of the night came with 4:05 left and West Virginia leading by only two. The shot clock was at two when he let a contested 3 go from right in front of West Virginia’s bench. McBride won his head-to-head matchup against McClung, outscoring his counterpart 20-to-17. Most of McBride’s 20 came in the second half as he finished six-of-12 from the floor and seven-of-eight from the free throw line. Culver chipped in with 15 points and eight rebounds in just 25 minutes of action. Jordan McCabe gave West Virginia a big lift in the first half when the Mountaineers led 40-34 at the break. As it did the first time West Virginia defeated Texas Tech in Morgantown 15 days ago, the Mountaineers shot 50% from 3-point distance (seven of 14). Another area where the Mountaineers took advantage of the Red Raiders was at the free throw line where they made 29 to Texas Tech’s 14. Gabe Osabuohien, a 38.5% free throw shooter entering tonight’s game, made five-of-eight, while Culver continued his improved free throw shooting by going seven-of-nine. Terrance Shannon contributed 13 for Texas Tech. The victory snapped a four-game losing streak to the Red Raiders in Lubbock, and was the Mountaineers’ first victory there since 2016 when Tubby Smith was still coaching the team.

West Virginia had several opportunities to knock off 12th-ranked Oklahoma at the WVU Coliseum, but the 14th-ranked Mountaineers just couldn’t come up with the winning plays when they needed them most. Oklahoma got a game-high 28 points from Austin Reaves, including the go-ahead basket with 26 seconds left, to lift the Sooners to a 91-90 doubleovertime victory. West Virginia had two good chances to win the game in regulation, but Deuce McBride couldn’t get a pair of shot attempts to go down ahead of the horn. Then in the second overtime, Derek Culver got the ball in the lane and tried to score over Kur Kuath, but Kuath blocked Culver’s shot and knocked the ball off of Culver out of bounds with seven seconds to go. West Virginia’s Gabe Osabuohien tied up De’vion Harman on the inbound pass to give the Mountaineers possession of the basketball with six seconds left. After a 30-second timeout called by the Sooners, West Virginia nearly turned the ball over on the inbound pass but got another opportunity to win the game with three seconds left on a side-court inbounds play. WVU opted to lob the ball into Culver near the basket and he had a good opportunity to win it, but his shot grazed off the rim and Jalen Bridges’ followup try to win it was also unsuccessful. The Mountaineers also lost this one at the free throw line where they misfired on 10 of their 21 attempts. The two biggest misses came with 45 seconds remaining in regulation and West Virginia leading 72-70. Culver, who finished with a team-high 29 points and 14 rebounds, was only three-of-seven from the line and McBride, an 83.5% free throw shooter, missed three of his eight attempts. Oklahoma had a nine-point lead with 5:38 left in regulation on Reaves’ short jumper, but McNeil responded with three consecutive 3s to tie the game at 68 with 3:28 to go. After McBride’s two free throws gave WVU a 7270 advantage with 2:10 remaining, Umoja Gibson’s driving layup with 21 seconds left tied the game at 72. OU had a 79-77 lead in the first overtime until Bridges knotted things up when he tipped in McNeil’s missed 3 to force a second overtime. Harmon scored 13, Elijah Harkless added 12 before fouling out in the second overtime, and forward Brady Manek added 11. Manek and Reaves managed to play both overtimes with four fouls each. McNeil scored all 21 of his points in the second half, connecting on five-of-10 from 3, while McBride added 19 although he was just six-of-19 from the floor. Oklahoma has now won four straight and five out of the last six against West Virginia dating back to 2019. It’s the third time the Sooners have swept the season series against the Mountaineers since West Virginia joined the Big 12 in 2013.

And we thought West Virginia’s 19-point comeback victory at Oklahoma State in January was epic! At Texas, the 13th-ranked Mountaineers matched it, outscoring the Longhorns 41-20 over the remaining 18:18 to pull off a stunning 84-82 victory over the 12th-ranked Longhorns. Sean McNeil scored all 16 of his team-high points in the second half after spending nearly the entire first half on the bench with two quick fouls. He keyed the comeback by scoring 13 points over an eight-minute stretch in the second half to pull the Mountaineers to within 74-71. Deuce McBride’s 3 with 6:29 left tied the game at 76, and a pair of Taz Sherman free throws with 4:35 remaining gave WVU ts first lead of the game. All eight Mountaineer points over the remaining 6:28 came from the free throw line. Fortunately Texas, which couldn’t miss in the first half, couldn’t connect when it counted most. The Longhorns went scoreless over the remaining 2:55, going 0 for 4 from the floor and missing eight of their final 10 field goal attempts. Both makes were 3s by Courtney Ramey, who poured in a game-high 28 points, but Ramey’s afternoon ended with 2:55 to go when he picked up his fifth foul trying to stop a Sherman drive to the basket. A big factor in WVU’s comeback was Ramey picking up his fourth foul with 9:38 left and Texas leading by seven. When he finally returned to the floor five minutes later, the Mountaineers were leading 77-76. For the first 22 minutes of the game, it looked like Texas was going to name its score. The Longhorns shot 70% from the floor in the first half, mostly near the basket where they got 34 points on a variety of dunks and layups. Texas (13-6, 7-5) scored the first nine points of the second half to lead b 19 before Derek Culver ended West Virginia’s drought with a dunk. Culver, with 14 points, was one of five West Virginia players to reach double figures. McBride scored a team-best 17 points, while Sherman and forward Emmitt Matthews Jr. chipped in with 14 points each. McNeil, Matthews and freshman Jalen Bridges were a combined 11-of-17 from the floor, while the rest of the team made 13-of-37 for just 35.1%. Matt Coleman III was Texas’ other big point producer with 20 points on eight-of-nine shooting. Texas finished the game connecting on 32 of 59 for 54.2%, including 14-of-26 from 3-point distance. West Virginia (15-6, 8-4) made up for it by scoring the Longhorns 26 to four at the free throw line. WVU made 26-of-37, including eight-of-nine over the final 4:35. McNeil’s three free throws with 3:52 left gave West Virginia its biggest lead of the game at five, 81-76, before Ramey quickly erased it. Texas outscored WVU 34-14 in the paint, but the Longhorns gave up 25 points on their 16 turnovers and held a slight 34-31 edge on the glass.

No. 10 West Virginia nearly led TCU throughout in registering a 74-66 victory over the Horned Frogs at Schollmaier Arena in Fort Worth, Texas. Lone Star State native Taz Sherman came off the bench to score a game-high 23 points to lead the Mountaineers to their sixth straight Big 12 road victory. The win also snapped TCU’s three-game home winning streak against WVU at Schollmaier Arena, dating back to 2017. “It was a very, very physical game,” West Virginia coach Bob Huggins, now three wins shy of 900 for his coaching career, said afterward. “I think that was their plan to make it physical and we just didn’t do a very good job of running offense.” Forward Derek Culver did most of his scoring in a first half that saw the Mountaineers take a 37-31 lead into the locker room at the break. Culver tallied 15 of his 18 points in the first half and also ended up with 14 rebounds – his Big 12-leading 11th of the season. It appeared Culver was headed for another big offensive night until he stumbled from the free throw line in the second half, connecting on six of 14 overall. WVU missed 14 free throws, including four straight during one stretch late in the game when it was trying to protect a 10-point lead. McBride, who finished with 11 points, ended West Virginia’s long field goal drought when he got one to go down with 1:03 left to put the Mountaineers ahead 73-61. Backup Jordan McCabe also ended a long scoreless drought with about eight minutes left to put WVU back ahead by double digits. Freshman forward Jalen Bridges continues to display his growth and development by contributing nine points on four-of-four shooting, seven of those coming in a late first-half flurry to give WVU its sixpoint halftime advantage. West Virginia’s biggest lead was 16 with 11:15 left when Sherman converted a four-point play. R.J. Nebhard led TCU, now 11-10, 4-8, with 17 points. Kevin Samuel added 11 points and 10 rebounds. “We went point-drop at the end again and I think that slowed them down a little bit, or at least we were able to catch them when they drove by the first defender,” Huggins said. The victory puts West Virginia, 16-6 overall, at 9-4 in Big 12 play with four regular season games remaining – all at home. “We’ve got a long stretch here in the league which could put us in pretty good shape in the league in terms of what that’s going to do for our seeding for the league tournament as well as the NCAA Tournament,” Huggins said. “And we’ve certainly got to get better if we want to make a long run in the NCAA Tournament.”

Sean McNeil scored 16 points and Derek Culver added 11 to lead 10th-ranked West Virginia to a 6543 victory over Kansas State at the WVU Coliseum. The Mountaineers used a 7-0 run to begin the second half to take control of the game. Another 17-0 run later in the second half helped West Virginia to its biggest lead at 25 with 3:03 to go. Neither team shot the ball well from the floor, victorious West Virginia connecting on 41.5% of its field goal attempts while Kansas State shot 29.4%. “I thought our rotations were better,” West Virginia coach Bob Huggins said. Huggins is now two victories shy of 900 for his illustrious coaching career. “If they shot 29%, think what it would have been if we didn’t give up all those point-blank shots around the rim.” WVU was six of 20 from 3-point range with McNeil making four. The rest of the team was just two of 11 from behind the arc. The Mountaineers did shoot 50% (13 of 26) in the second half, outscoring the Wildcats 39-21 after the break. In the first half, K-State kept it close by clamping down on West Virginia and getting some point-blank baskets from 7-foot center Davion Bradford, who finished with a team-high 11 points. Guard Mike McGuirl finished with 10 on 3-of-11 shooting. Wildcat starting point guard Nijel Pak sat out the game with an eye infection. Huggins also chose to start Jordan McCabe instead of regular point guard Deuce McBride in hopes of giving McBride some rest with four games coming up in a span of six days. McBride played 23 minutes today and finished with five points. Culver’s minutes were also reduced to 18 today, though partly because he got into early foul trouble. Thirteen players saw the floor and eight got into the scoring column for West Virginia. “In the first half the ball stuck,” Huggins explained. “Everybody kind of wanted to do something with the ball without moving the defense. For two days we basically told them they’re going to have 10 feet inside the 3-point line and 10 eyes on you when you have the ball and they must not have believed us.” Kansas State fell to 7-19, 3-14 after losing both times to West Virginia this season. “We’re making progress (defensively),” Huggins said. “We didn’t get straight-lined near as much today, we did a much better job with rotations but we have to learn to rotate to the guy who is going to hurt us the most – not just to the closest guy.”

Third-ranked Baylor made its last four shots in overtime and got a couple of late free throws from Adam Flagler and Davion Mitchell to down No. 6 West Virginia 94-89 in an epic college basketball game at the WVU Coliseum. Jared Butler scored 25 points on 10-of-21 shooting before fouling out in overtime, Mitchell finished with 20 and Matthew Mayer came off the bench to contribute 18 in leading Baylor to its first regular season conference title in more than 60 years. It was Mayer who made some really big shots in the second half to keep Baylor within striking distance. In a game that had 10 lead changes and nine ties, it came down to a handful of WVU miscues that Baylor managed to capitalize on. The first one came near the end of the first half after West Virginia had battled back from a 12-point deficit and was trailing by only one with just 1.4 seconds showing on the clock. An offensive foul called on Mayer gave WVU possession of the ball underneath Baylor’s basket. But Taz Sherman turned the ball over trying to inbound it and Butler made the Mountaineers pay with a difficult 3 ahead of the horn, giving Baylor a four-point lead at the break instead of a one advantage. WVU’s inability to inbound the ball at the beginning of the second half also cost it a valuable timeout that Huggins could have used late in the game. West Virginia was terrific at the free throw line, making 28-of-32 including nine-of-10 from 59% free throw shooter Derek Culver, but two misses were costly. The first came with 13 seconds left when two Miles McBride free throws could have given WVU a threepoint lead. He could only get the second one to go down and Butler sent the game to overtime on a driving layup with two seconds left. A Sherman miss with 1:15 to go in overtime could have given WVU a two-point lead. Following the miss, Mitchell went right to the basket to convert a layup, and then Mark Vital was able to knock the ball away from Sherman to give the Bears possession of the basketball with 37 seconds left. West Virginia’s players were instructed to foul Vital, a 47% free throw shooter, but 80% foul shooter Flagler was fouled instead. He made both to put the Bears ahead 92-89. Two more Mitchell free throws with 18 seconds remaining put the game on ice. One other significant play occurred with 2:52 left in overtime and West Virginia leading 85-83. Freshman forward Jalen Bridges, who had just hit a big 3 to beat the shot clock, came up with a steal near the Baylor bench and instead of collecting it and maintaining possession to run some clock, he chose to push the ball up the floor and his pass to Sherman led him out of bounds. Butler immediately took advantage of the turnover with a 3 to put the Bears ahead 86-85.

Sixth-ranked West Virginia got a career-high 22 points from freshman forward Jalen Bridges to put away youthful TCU 76-67 before a subdued crowd of 2,800. “We didn’t come to play,” said Mountaineer coach Bob Huggins, who spent a good portion of the second half sitting on his stool watching the action with his arms folded. West Virginia, coming off a 94-89 overtime loss against Big 12 champion Baylor, led for all but two minutes of the game but could never quite put away the Horned Frogs. “I guess that the thing most people would do is blame it on the hangover from the Baylor game, but we just didn’t play,” Huggins said. “Thank goodness J.B. was here. We didn’t guard, we didn’t run offense and we had to have more dribbles per person in the first half than any team that’s been here.” TCU (12-12, 5-10) shot just 18% in the first half. But the Frogs warmed up in the second half and eventually reduced the Mountaineers’ 15-point lead to seven with 5:47 to go. West Virginia, which missed 14 free throws a week ago in its eight-point victory at TCU, made them in this game. Bridges was eight of nine, forward Derek Culver was seven of nine and Sean McNeil was seven of eight as WVU converted 26 of 30 overall. Culver, a 60% free throw shooter, made all seven of his free throws at a critical time in the second half. He missed eight the last time West Virginia played TCU. The good free throw shooting compensated for some poor marksmanship from WVU’s guard trio of Miles McBride, McNeil and Taz Sherman, who combined to make only seven of 30 for 23.3%. Bridges’ night also included a career-high 12 rebounds. “He made big shots for us,” Huggins said. WVU made eight of 21 from 3-point distance, but was only 13 of 40 from inside the arc, Culver contributed 17 points and eight rebounds, McNeil scored 14 and McBride finished with 10 points and five assists. West Virginia outscored TCU 19-7 in fast break points, but the Horned Frogs had a 30-to-20 advantage in paint scoring and a 24-to-four edge in bench scoring, mostly because of Jaedon Ledee’s 20. Mike Miles scored 15 and 7-foot center Kevin Samuel added 12 points and eight rebounds. TCU’s leading scorer R.J. Nembhard finished with just five points on two of eight shooting before fouling out. “Maybe this will be good for us, but it’s sure as heck not good for me,” Huggins said. Backup point guard Jordan McCabe sat out the game with a lower back injury suffered during shootaround earlier in the day.

Avery Anderson’s career-high 31 points led 17thranked Oklahoma State to a 85-80 victory over No. 6 West Virginia at the WVU Coliseum. West Virginia (18-8, 11-6) was looking to lock up a No. 2 seed in the Big 12 tournament and get coach Bob Huggins his 900th career victory. Oklahoma State, playing without its two best players Cade Cunningham and Issac Likekele, shot a sizzling 58% for the game, including 64.3% in the second half to overcome a five-point halftime deficit. The Cowboys (18-7, 11-7) got most of their scoring near the basket where they outscored the Mountaineers 50-30 in the paint. Oklahoma State had a 38-29 edge on the glass and forced West Virginia into turning the ball over 10 times in the second half. “They got anything they wanted,” Huggins said. Matthew Alexander-Moncrieffe added 18 points for OSU before fouling out with five minutes remaining. Brothers Kalib and Keylan Boone combined to score 23 points - Keylan hitting a couple of critical second-half 3s when West Virginia was trying to rally. Bernard Kouma grabbed a game-high 10 rebounds before fouling out. West Virginia’s largest lead was six with 3:40 left in the first half, but OSU erased it by the 15-minute mark of the second half. The Oklahoma State lead swelled to five on a Kalib Boone dunk before WVU eventually knotted it at 67 on two Miles McBride free throws. The game was also tied at 70 and 72 before the Cowboys got big baskets from Anderson and Kouma – Kouma’s a put-back of Keylan Boone’s air ball. Anderson’s biggest field goal came with 32 seconds left to put Oklahoma State up four. Trailing 83-80 after an Anderson missed free throw, West Virginia had an opportunity to tie the game with 11 seconds left, but Keylan Boone stole McBride’s pass intended for Derek Culver near the basket and Boone quickly called timeout to avoid a tie up. When play resumed, West Virginia fouled Anderson, who made both free throws to put the game away. Oklahoma State closed out the Mountaineers by making five of its last six field goal attempts. OSU has been one of the most successful Big 12 teams playing here in Morgantown, the Cowboys winning six times since the Mountaineers joined the league in 2012, including four out of the last five. Five of West Virginia’s eight losses this season have come at home, and all five were by two-possession-orless margins. Senior guard Taz Sherman led WVU with 20 points on seven-of-15 shooting. Culver contributed 14 points coming off the bench, including his 1,000th career point at WVU in his 83rd career game. McBride scored 12 and Emmitt Matthews Jr. finished with 11.

Cade Cunningham and Avery Anderson scored 17 points each to lead 12th-ranked Oklahoma State to a 72-69 victory over 10th-ranked West Virginia in a Big 12 quarterfinal round game at the T-Mobile Center in Kansas City. Cunningham shot just six of 15 from the floor, but hit a pair of 3s and grabbed eight rebounds for the 19-7 Cowboys. Anderson was unstoppable in the second half when he tallied 15 of his 17 points. Anderson’s big basket came with 53 seconds to go when he drove past Sean McNeil for a driving layup to give Oklahoma State a 70-69 lead. At the other end, West Virginia’s Deuce McBride couldn’t get his shot jumper to fall. Emmitt Matthews Jr. took the ball from Cunningham but also missed a close one, requiring McNeil to foul Isaac Likekele, who made both free throws. West Virginia called timeout with 16 seconds remaining seeking a 3 to tie it. Oklahoma State, which had fouls to give, opted not to foul. Taz Sherman’s 3-point try from the wing was deflected by Likekele. The ball was rebounded along the baseline by Derek Culver, who kicked it back out to McNeil. He got off a successful 3 but it came after time had expired. West Virginia scored the last seven points of the first half, including a pair of rapid-fire baskets from McBride, to take a six-point lead into the locker room at the break. McBride’s second basket was a driving dunk over Cunningham. A McBride jumper to begin the second half gave West Virginia an eight-point lead, its biggest of the game, but things turned at the 10-minute mark when the Cowboys went on a 9-0 run. Actually, from 12:41 until 5:43, Oklahoma State outscored West Virginia 23-5 to take a 10-point lead. But Sherman answered with back-to-back 3s and then added a layup to reduce the Cowboys’ advantage to one, 65-64. Another Sherman 3 with 54 seconds remaining gave West Virginia a 69-68 lead. The Mountaineers (18-9) were no match for the Cowboys on the glass, in part because Culver was suffering from a cold and backup forward Gabe Osabuohien once again being saddled in foul trouble. Osabuohien’s afternoon ended with 3:17 to go and WVU trailing 67-64. Oklahoma State grabbed 15 offensive rebounds and had a 13-board advantage over the Mountaineers. Kalib Boone grabbed four offensive rebounds and finished with a game-high 10 overall. West Virginia had 15 turnovers to Oklahoma State’s 20, but the Cowboys made up for their lost possessions with their solid glass work McBride and Sherman led all scorers with 19 points each, but 16 of McBride’s came in the first half. He was just one-of-five from the floor after intermission.

Recap
Guard Deuce McBride’s 30 points powered thirdseeded West Virginia to an 84-67 victory over No. 14 Morehead State in an NCAA Tournament first-round game at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana. The victory was the 900th of Bob Huggins’ long and storied coaching career, putting him in an elite group of only five other coaches in NCAA history to do so. The game turned in West Virginia’s favor with 13 minutes to go after Ta’lon Cooper’s driving layup pulled the Eagles to within one, 46-45. Jalen Bridges, who contributed 15 points for the Mountaineers, answered with a 3 and then McBride made a steal at midcourt and went in for a driving layup. He was struck on the head by Devon Cooper as he scored and the officials ruled it a flagrant-one foul after reviewing it on the replay monitor. McBride was awarded two free throws, which he made, and West Virginia also got possession of the ball underneath its own basket. McBride tossed the inbounds pass off the back of T.J. Hunt, who fouled him while attempting to score. McBride made two more free throws to give the Mountaineers six points on a single trip down the floor. In a matter of 29 seconds a one-point lead became a 10-point advantage. Bridges knocked down another 3 to give West Virginia a 15-point lead with 5:36 remaining, and the margin eventually swelled to 18 with 24 seconds left on freshman Taj Tweatt’s short jumper. McBride tallied 18 of his game-high 30 points in the second half – one shy of his career high. He made 11 of his 17 field goal attempts, including three-of-four from 3-point distance. The sophomore also handed out six assists, grabbed six rebounds and made three steals. Bridges’ 15 came on six-of-eight shooting, including three-of-five from behind the arc. Sean McNeil added 13 and Derek Culver, who failed to make a field goal in the first half, finished with 12. West Virginia led 38-31 at halftime, but let an early 11-point advantage evaporate midway through the first half. Culver’s second-half scoring against Morehead State’s outstanding 6-10 freshman center Johni Broome was a contributing factor in West Virginia’s double-digit lead. Turnovers were Morehead State’s undoing. The Eagles’ 18 miscues led to 24 West Virginia points, 20 coming in transition. That overshadowed a 52% shooting performance from the floor and a fourrebound advantage on the glass. Cooper scored 21, Skyelar Potter 18 and Broome added 10 for Morehead State, which concluded its season with a 23-8 record. Following the win, West Virginia players celebrated Huggins’ 900th victory on the floor with their coach.

Recap
Guard Buddy Boeheim scored 25 points to lead 11th-seeded Syracuse to a 75-72 victory over thirdseeded West Virginia in an NCAA Tournament Midwest regional game at Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, Indiana. West Virginia simply couldn’t solve Syracuse’s 2-3 zone defense. The Mountaineers shot 37.1% overall, and only 29.5% from inside the 3-point arc, and consequently, they spent the entire afternoon playing catch up. “We ran what we need to run, we just didn’t score,” Bob Huggins said. “How many shots inside of 3, 4 feet did we miss to start the game? They had a lot to do with that.” Syracuse (18-9) jumped on WVU early and led by 14 at 26-12 and then at 30-16 on a Merek Dolezaj layup. But a couple of Sean McNeil 3s, and another 3 by Deuce McBride 3, cut the Orange advantage to eight with 1:06 left in the half. Two Emmitt Matthews Jr. free throws with four seconds remaining made it a six-point deficit at intermission. Considering how poorly West Virginia handled the Syracuse zone missing shots and turning the ball over, the Mountaineers had to feel good about being down by only six. However, Syracuse reestablished its double-digit advantage early in the second half on Quincy Guerrier and Boeheim 3s before West Virginia responded with a 9-0 run to make it a two-point game. Back-to-back Boeheim 3s got the Syracuse margin back to eight, but McNeil answered with threestraight triples, his third coming in transition with 9:47 left to give the Mountaineers a 53-52 lead. West Virginia’s only lead was short-lived, though, when Boeheim answered in transition. Taz Sherman and McBride 3s kept it a one-point advantage with five minutes to go before a 10-point Syracuse flurry. Boeheim and Robert Braswell made 3s, and Dolezaj and Guerrier got close ones to push the Syracuse lead to 70-59. McNeil’s seventh 3 and a Matthews layup with 44 seconds to go got the deficit to four, and some Mountaineer pressure led to a Gabe Osabuohien layup making it 74-72. But Syracuse managed to get the ball inbounds to Boeheim with two seconds left and his free throw was the game’s final point. Guerrier, Dolejaz and Joseph Girard III scored 12 points each for Syracuse. McNeil led West Virginia with 23 points on eightof-15 shooting, including seven-of-13 from 3. The rest of the team was just 18 of 55 for 32.7%. Matthews Jr. contributed 14 while Sherman and McBride added 11 each. All-Big 12 forward Derek Culver finished with seven points and three rebounds while seeing just 21 minutes of court time. West Virginia concluded its season with a 19-10 record. Nine of the Mountaineers’ 10 defeats were by five points or less.

In the annals of West Virginia basketball, the uniform number that stands head-and-shoulders above all others is 44. In just seven seasons of action, that number produced five All-America awards, two Pro Hall of Fame inductions, three WVU Sports Hall of Fame members and these numbers: 4,096 points, 2,152 rebounds and 565 assists. The first player to wear 44 was Joe Stydahar in 1936. Known better for his exploits on the gridiron, Stydahar held his own on the basketball court, scoring 608 points in four seasons. He wore 44 during his final season of basketball, in which he only played three games. Stydahar was a football third-team All-American in 1935, and was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1967 and the WVU Sports Hall of Fame in 1991. The next player to wear 44 was and still is the most famous Mountaineer to ever don the Gold and Blue -- Jerry West. In three seasons from 1958-60 (freshmen were not allowed to play varsity ball), West put up numbers that have stood as Mountaineer records for more than 35 years. His 2,309 career points and 1,240 career rebounds are school records that may stand eternally. Since West’s career ended in 1960, no one has come closer than 450 points and 170 rebounds to his respective marks. In all, West holds 17 school records. He was an unanimous All-American in both 1959 and 1960 and was inducted into the Pro Basketball Hall of Fame in 1979 and the WVU Hall of Fame in 1991. WVU retired his No. 44 on Nov. 26, 2005.

The third and final Mountaineer to wear 44 was Rod Thorn, among the best players in West Virginia history. Taking the reins from West, Thorn continued what is referred to as the “Golden Era” of Mountaineer basketball. From 1961-63, Thorn scored 1,785 points (No. 5 all-time), grabbed 912 rebounds (No. 7 all-time) and dished out 304 assists (No. 11 all-time). Thorn was an All-American in 1962 and 1963 and was inducted into the WVU Sports Hall of Fame in 1992. WVU retired his No. 44 on Feb. 29, 2020.

ALL-TIME
How It All Began
University, In 1903 intercollegiate basketball got its start at West Virginia primarily through the efforts of one student, John Alden
Purinton, who had transferred to WVU from Denison College in Ohio, where he had played the sport. Purinton was the son of Dr. Daniel Boardman Purinton, who was WVU’s president and for whom the Purinton House of the Downtown Campus was named. Purinton talked it up among some of his interested fellow students and then served as manager/coach of West Virginia University’s first team. WVU had “class” basketball teams for several years prior to 1904 and thus a nucleus of players was available. Those teams played in the basement of the Old Commencement Hall, later called Reynolds Hall, located facing the main campus where the Mountainlair presently sits. The ceilings were low and a couple of posts supporting the upper story were in the middle of the playing floor, but this proved to be no real obstacle. The varsity team began playing in The Armory in 1904. The first team won four and lost three, fittingly enough, the initial victory coming by a score of 15-12 over a team from longtime rival Pitt, then officially known as the Western University of Pennsylvania. Those original four wins laid the foundation that has made WVU one of college basketball’s top 20 all-time winning teams. The mark stands at 1,811-1,120 over the 112 seasons of competition. -- Buck Martin

From 1956 to 1960, West Virginia won an NCAA record 44 consecutive regular-season league games as a member of the Southern Conference. The streak began with an 84-62 win against Virginia Tech in 1955-56 and continued for nearly three more seasons. During the streak, WVU won 32 of the 44 games by 10 or more points, and only four times in that span won by less than five. William & Mary, a team that WVU beat nine times during the streak, ended the Mountaineers’ run with a 94-86 defeat in 1959-60. Other victims during the streak included Furman (eight times), Richmond (seven), Virginia Military (seven), George Washington (six), Washington & Lee (three), the Citadel (two) and Virginia Tech (two). The 44 games are indicated by bold, superscripted numerals that look like 27 in the all-time scores. 1957-58 (26-2, 12-0 SOUTHERN CONFERENCE/1ST) // COACH FRED SCHAUS 109-50 105-67 84-50 68-52 74-69 76-74*

Born May 28, 1938 in Chelyan, Jerry West established 17 WVU records and led the Mountaineers to three of its greatest seasons on the hardwood. With a mark of 61-12 while West was a regular, West Virginia earned three straight NCAA berths and came within two points of winning the national championship in 1959. A second team All-American in 1958, West earned consensus All-America honors in 1959 and 1960; he averaged 29.3 points and 16.5 rebounds per game as a senior. After his senior season, he was selected to play on the Pan American and Olympic teams. Co-captain of the 1960 Olympic team along with Oscar Robertson, the duo led the USA to a 5-0 record and a victory over Russia to claim the gold medal at Rome. West entered the NBA in 1961 and spent 14 outstanding seasons with the Los Angeles Lakers. During his NBA career, he compiled just about every honor possible. An all-NBA first team selection seven times, he also made the all-NBA defensive team four straight years from 1970-73. He set a then NBA single game scoring record for guards on January 17, 1962, scoring 63 points against New York. Also an NBA record-holder for the most free throws made in a single season in 1965-66 with 840, he led the league in scoring in 1970, averaging 31.2 points per game. West played in 14 all-star games, winning MVP honors in 1972. Also the NBA playoff MVP in 1969, at one time he held the NBA record with 3,708 playoff points. The fifth player in NBA history to surpass the 6,000 assist mark, the 6-3 guard played on one NBA championship team in 1972. Upon retiring in 1974, West ranked among the NBA top five in scoring, minutes, field goals and field goal percentage. Formerly the successful president of the Lakers (whom he led to five NBA titles in the 1980s) he was elected to the Pro Basketball Hall of Fame in 1979 and was an inaugural member of the West Virginia Sports Hall of Fame in 1991. West came out of retirement in 2002 to serve as president for the Memphis Grizzlies until 2007 and was named NBA Executive of the Year in 2004, the second time he won the award. West guided the franchise to NBA championship contention and the team’s first-ever playoff appearances. In 2011, West joined the Golden State Warriors as an executive board member. His guidance helped return Golden State to a championship-caliber franchise. In 2015, the Warriors produced the best record in the NBA and won the league championship, West’s seventh as an NBA executive. The following season, the Warriors set the NBA record for regular season wins with 73. He is currently serving as a special advisor to the Los Angeles Clippers. In 2019, it was announced that West would be receiving the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian honor, for his work on and off the court. His #44 jersey number was retired by WVU in 2005, the first time any basketball jersey has been retired from competition.

Born October 26, 1934, in Charleston, Rod Hundley was raised in the Charleston pool halls and saloons. Realizing his basketball talents could get him somewhere, he applied himself enough to earn a basketball scholarship at West Virginia University, although initially, his heart was set on North Carolina State. As a freshman, Hundley set the freshman scoring record with 62 points against the Ohio University plebes and averaged almost 35 points per game. It was also during his freshman year that he learned to clown, a practice he continued for the remainder of his career. His routine included behind-the-back foul shots, half-court heaves, lining up in the T formation and practicing his pitching motion -- all during the game. In the 1954 Southern Conference tournament, Hundley had an opportunity to set the tournament scoring record with two free throws in the waning minutes of the championship game against George Washington. With the outcome already decided in WVU’s favor, Hundley, upon learning that he could get the record, shot two air balls. The first attempt was a hook shot. The second was a behind-the-back heave. He averaged 24.5 points per game over three seasons and scored 2,180 career points, just the fourth player in college basketball to accomplish that. “Hot Rod” set the WVU single-game scoring record with 54 points against Furman, and still holds seven other school marks. Named to five All-America teams in 1957, he was the first player chosen in the 1957 NBA draft and played with the Minneapolis/Los Angeles Lakers from 1958-63. Since 1971 he was a broadcaster with the Utah Jazz until his retirement in 2009, after announcing more than 3,000 NBA games. In 1994, he won the NBA’s Distinguished Broadcaster Award, a honor bestowed only twice previously. Hundley was inducted into the West Virginia Sports Hall of Fame in 1992 and recently released his second book, “You Gotta Love It, Baby!” In 2003, he received the Curt Gowdy Media Award at the NBA Hall of Fame ceremonies. His #33 jersey number was retired by WVU in 2009, the second basketball jersey to be retired from competition. Hundley died on March 27, 2015 in Phoenix, Ariz.

Born May 23, 1941 in Princeton, Rod Thorn became one of the most prized and touted recruits to ever sign at West Virginia University. His high school reputation was so great that the state legislature intervened in his recruitment and declared him one of the state’s natural resources. Also resourceful as a player from 1961-63, Thorn was one of the most honored backcourt players in the nation during his senior season in 1963. The 1963 Southern Conference Athlete of the Year, he was a member of two basketball and three baseball clubs that played in NCAA tournaments at West Virginia. As a senior he earned All-America basketball honors from the Helms Foundation, Look, Coach & Athlete and Converse. Scoring 1,785 career points, he led the Mountaineers in scoring, rebounding, shooting percentage and assists for two seasons and set six records that still stand in the WVU record books. In 1964, Thorn was drafted in the first round by the Baltimore Bullets and went on to play with Detroit, St. Louis and Seattle during an eight year pro career. He went on in the professional ranks to become a coach and general manager. Thorn retired as the NBA President of Basketball Operations in 2015. He was inducted into the West Virginia Sports Hall of Fame in 1992. Thorn was presented with the Basketball Hall of Fame Lifetime Achievement Award in 2015 and was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame in 2018. WVU retired his No. 44 on Feb. 29, 2020.

The first 1,000-point scorer in Mountaineer history, Leland Byrd is one of West Virginia’s finest lefthanded cagers of all-time. He led WVU to three straight NIT berths and was part of WVU’s first 20-win season, when the 1945-46 squad went 24-3. During his junior season, the Mountaineers were ranked as high as second nationally and WVU’s home winning streak grew to a school record 57 games. In 1947, Byrd was honored by the Helms Foundation as a firstteam All-American. In 1972, Byrd was named WVU’s fifth athletic director. For the next eight years, WVU enjoyed considerable growth and success under his leadership. His lasting monument to West Virginia can be seen in the 63,500-seat football stadium Mountaineer Field; a facility he helped secure funds for before leaving WVU to become executive director of the Eastern Eight basketball conference in 1979. Byrd was a member of the inaugural West Virginia Sports Hall of Fame induction class in 1991.

Da’Sean Butler finished his Mountaineer career with 2,095 points, ranking third in school history behind Jerry West and Hot Rod Hundley. In 2010, he became the ninth first team All-American in school history after he was named to the Basketball Times and John Wooden All-America teams. A second-team selection by the Associated Press and third-team selection by the NABC in 2010, Butler is the winningest player in school history with 107 victories. WVU had a 107-39 record during his career, and he led the Mountaineers to three straight NCAA appearances, including the 2010 Final Four and 2008 Sweet 16.

From nearby Uniontown, Pa., Wil Robinson was named West Virginia’s seventh first-team All-American in 1972 after becoming the third highest career scorer in Mountaineer basketball history. In 1972, the 6-1 guard forged the highest season scoring average in WVU history when he scored 706 points in 24 games (29.4), breaking a record set by Jerry West. The flamboyant Robinson scored 1,850 points in his career, trailing only All-Americans West (2,309) and Rod Hundley (2,180). Other career marks include a 24.7 points-per-game scoring average (second) and 733 field goals (third). The three-year letterman (1970-72) holds the WVU Coliseum record for points in a game by a Mountaineer player (45 vs. Penn State in 1971). In fact, Robinson owns six of the Mountaineers’ top seven all-time single game scores at the Coliseum. He and his teammates opened the WVU Coliseum with a 113-92 victory against Colgate on December 1, 1970. Following his senior season, Robinson was named first team AllAmerica by Basketball Weekly, United Savings and Helms Foundation, second team by Converse and third team by the Associated Press. A two-year WVU team captain, Robinson was selected in the fourth round of the NBA draft by the Houston Rockets and the fourth round of the ABA draft by the Pittsburgh Condors. He played one year in the ABA (1974) with the Memphis and Utah teams. Robinson was inducted into the West Virginia Sports Hall of Fame in 1997.

He once scored 50 points during a 1951 game against Salem College and still holds four of WVU’s top 10 all-time single game scoring marks. One of Workman’s greatest accomplishments was winning the Basketball Writers Association Gold Star Award as the outstanding visiting player in the state of New York for the 1951-52 season. Workman led WVU to wins against New York University (100-75) and Niagara (74-71). A first team All-America selection in 1952 by the Associated Press, UPI, Look and the Helms Foundation, Workman finished third in the nation in scoring as a junior (26.1 points per game) and sixth nationally as a senior (23.1), while averaging 17.5 rebounds per game.

SHANE LYONS There’s a reason Shane Lyons was named NACDA Athletics Director of the Year in 2021, it’s because he spends endless hours daily for the betterment of more than 500 student-athletes and their day-to-day needs in order to help them succeed in the classroom and in competition. His open lines of communications have made him a popular role model for WVU student-athletes and coaches. His honest, fair and caring approach has led to success on and off the field. Whether it’s regularly scheduled meetings with the student-athletes or his open-door office policy, Lyons has his finger on the pulse of his department. In the past year, his success and work ethic has brought national exposure to West Virginia University as Lyons’ presence is wanted on many national and prestigious committees. During the COVID-19 pandemic, he chaired the all-important Football Oversight Committee and played a key role in the sport overcoming, adjusting and managing the difficulties to complete the 2020 season. There’s no doubt that Lyons’ even-keeled demeanor, ability to think outside the box and solve problems played a major role in having a football season in 2020. He is also a member of the NCAA Council and will chair that distinguished committee in 2021-22. Additionally, Lyons served on the NCAA Working Group on Transfers, the Football Competition Committee and the NCAA Wrestling Academics Enhancement Working Group. His work with WVU President E. Gordon Gee’s senior leadership team and the Big 12 Conference has brought additional respect and positive exposure to his department and the University.

The Time2Climb fundraising membership drive he initiated in 2021 already is getting new donors involved in Mountaineer athletics and helping the Mountaineer Athletic Club grow and plan for the future. From training, nutrition, medical upgrades and competitiveness, Lyons has already left many accomplishments and success in his rearview mirror and the coming year will add to that portfolio. He will officially unveil a complete overhaul of football’s Milan Puskar Center and open a new Olympic Sports Performance Center that will benefit hundreds of student-athletes, bringing them together in one beautiful complex. Lyons inherited aging sports venues in 2015 and worked hard to fundraise, plan and implement more than $200 million in longoverdue facility improvements. One of the end results of his efforts will take place in the fall of 2021, when all 18 varsity sports teams will have their own private and dedicated locker rooms for the first time in school history. In 2019, Lyons commissioned and announced an economic impact study that showed Mountaineer Athletics produced more than $300 million to the state’s economy and more than $78 million to the local economy.

FROM LEARFIELD
The Mountaineer Sports Network is your home for all of the excitement of West Virginia basketball The Mountaineer Sports Network is more than 35 affiliates strong for WVU basketball and blankets West Virginia before extending into five other states. For basketball games, fans have the luxury of listening to the Mountaineers from anywhere in the state thanks to the network’s strong lineup of affiliates. Mountaineer Sports Network’s coverage of West Virginia men’s basketball games begins one hour prior to tipoff. Tony Caridi, the Mountaineer’s primary radio play-by-play broadcaster has held the post since 1997, though the state’s most recognizable sports voice has been a staple in Morgantown since 1984. Caridi has won numerous awards for sportscasting and is widely regarded as one of the best in the business among executives and peers. Jay Jacobs, a Morgantown native and former Mountaineer player, has worked on WVU basketball broadcasts, on television and radio, for five decades. He is the all-time leading scorer for Morgantown High. The broadcast features one-on-one, exclusive interviews with coach Bob Huggins, player and assistant coach features and in-depth scouting reports of the Mountaineer’s opposition making MSN the place to be on game day for all WVU fans. The Mountaineer Sports Network is there every step of the way to bring fans all the action of West Virginia basketball in the powerful Big 12 Conference. Fans outside the coverage area can hear the official broadcast of the Mountaineers through WVUsports.com. And once again this season, the Mountaineer Sports Network’s coverage of Mountaineer basketball is also available on SiriusXM Satellite Radio. Thanks to WVUsports.com and SiriusXM Satellite Radio, West Virginia fans can be anywhere in the world and never miss a Mountaineer game again. WVU Athletics joined forces with LEARFIELD and Sidearm to develop the WVU Gameday App to keep Mountaineer fans connected to the action while at the game or watching from home. The WVU Gameday App, which can be found as a free download in the Apple iTunes and Google Play stores, is packed with robust social, on-campus and stadium features that enhance the gameday experience by delivering • Free live game audio; • Real-time Instagram and Twitter feeds from the team and fans; • The official game-day guide with key times, events and need-to-know information including stadium maps and parking to plan the day; • Roster and real-time stats; • Opt-in alerts for updates, pregame events, play-by-play information and more. Another free option for WVU fans is the newly launched Varsity Network App. The user-friendly audio hub hosts all college sports broadcasts within the LEARFIELD family. WVU fans can set alerts for their favorite MSN programming, so they don’t miss a second of the Mountaineers on the air. In addition to game broadcasts, the Mountaineer Sports Network also produces The Bob Huggins Show, a weekly radio talk show during basketball season which airs on stations throughout the region, featuring Caridi and coach Huggins one night a week from 7-9 p.m. The Bob Huggins Show originates from Kegler’s Sports Bar and Lounge in Morgantown. Fans are welcome to attend in person every show. The network’s weekly television magazine show, The Bob Huggins Show, airs every Friday and Saturday during basketball season on a number of television stations throughout West Virginia. The show includes weekly highlights, features and previews, focusing on West Virginia basketball. For complete coverage of Mountaineer basketball, there’s no better seat in the house, in the car or at the Coliseum than with the Mountaineer Sports Network. TONY CARIDI AND JAY JACOBS

Following are some guidelines for covering Mountaineers in 2021-22.

CREDENTIALS: Media should apply online for their credentials at www.sportssystems.com/westvirginia at least two weeks prior to the game. Season credentials should be requested prior to October 25 to ensure consideration for the 2021-22 season. Credentials are granted to authorized media, WVU authorized officials and game management personnel only. Requests for credentials are carefully screened due to demand and to ensure proper access and functional working media areas. Traditional print, television, online and radio agencies regularly assigned to cover WVU and the visiting school, as well as national news gathering agencies, will receive top priority. Spouses, dates, equipment carriers and non-workers are restricted from press row and the court. Abuse of a West Virginia basketball credential can result in the media agency losing credential privileges for the remainder of 2021-22 and possibly the entire 2022-23 season. DURING THE WEEK: The Mountaineer basketball team will practice six days a week throughout the preseason. One day each week during the preseason, Mountaineer players and coaches will be available for interviews. During the season, contact the WVU Athletics Communications Office for the interview schedule. Any other interview requests should be arranged at least two days in advance through the athletic communications office. Players can return phone calls to the media, class schedules permitting, upon request. At no time will a player’s cell phone number be provided to the media.
