OK Mountaineer fans, I’m asking for your help!
I’m headed to Vegas for the first and second round of the tournament and I need your input on who to “bet on” while I’m gambling 100% legally in Las Vegas. Suck it PA fuzz!

Big East Tourney Semi’s

I can’t wait for this one, revenge is the name of the tournament for the Mountaineers and we have a big chip on our shoulder when it comes to G’town. How can we forget this:

WVU over G’Town: 74 - 69
Pitt over Marquette: 69 - 67
I’m a little concerned that the guys […]

Congrats Joe Alexander!
We here at wvmountaineersports.com would like to congratulate Joe Alexander on making the All Big East first team.
