Despite the loss in the column, the Mountaineers put up a solid fight against the Red Raiders. Led by yet another incredible effort by Jesse Edwards, finishing with 17 points and 8 rebounds, Josh Eilert’s squad fought until the very end.
This effort was indicative of how the season has gone for the Mountaineers. The effort was there, but the final box score simply did not go their way.
WVU returns home for Senior Day on Wednesday to face off against TCU. Tip-off is set for 7 p.m.
