Well, as I’ve been saying for the past few weeks about the West Virginia Women’s Basketball program, the late season slump was going to be there undoing. This senior-laden team, seven in all, had Sweet 16 potential all season. I mean they beat Rutgers this season. But a cop-out of a draw [...]

Well, I only wish the Mountaineers were 40 minutes away from going to Phoenix against the 15 seed Belmont Bruins.

And the news wasn’t good at all.
They will play in the Spokane bracket as the 5th [...]

The West Virginia Mountaineers basketball team has known for awhile that they would be in the NCAA Tournament. Still the big questions on the minds of Mountaineer Nation would be who would they face? When will we play them and where? The answer to those questions are as perfect a scenario as [...]
