Meet the three SGA presidential candidates for 2018-19 school year
A LOOK INSIDE
MICHAEL QUINLAN
Quinlan wants to focus on college affordability, Greek life community, issues like parking/ safety and uniting Mountaineers. Michael Quinlan is a junior political science major from St. Albans, West Virginia. From spring 2017 to fall of 2017, he was the campus coordinator for WVU Turning Point USA. Quinlan is a brother of the Sigma Nu fraternity and a tour guide for WVU. Riley Keaton is the vice president candidate. Thinking about the future of WVU, Quinlan said the first issue that should be tackled is college affordability. “The first big issue that we see is affordability here at WVU,” Quinlan said. “Anyone who wants to come to WVU should not be priced out.” Quinlan said he would try to promote “fixed tuition,” which is the cost of WVU during your freshman has to be the cost your senior year. In February, the University released a moratorium preventing social activity on fraternities, as well as raising the GPA requirements of Greek Life. By 2020, the minimum GPA to join will be a 3.0. Quinlan emphasized worry with several other aspects of Greek Life, such as deferred recruitment and how students are encouraged to get a lease on an apartment during their first semester of college, thus making it unlikely they will live in a fraternity house. Quinlan said SGA should sit down with Greek Life to figure out what can be done to improve Greek Life without “doing things that are really going to be a detriment to Greek Life.”

TYLER BREWSTER
Brewster wants to combat racism, enhance campus safety and provide a more welcoming environment on campus.
Tyler Brewster is a junior political science student from Martinsburg, West Virginia. He is the current SGA President Pro Tempore. He is the vice president of the Student Alumni Association and was a board member of the Residence Hall Association during his freshman year. Sydney Luther is Brewster’s vice president candidate. Providing a safer campus is one of Brewster top proirities. “There are a lot of dangerous intersections on campus where pedestrian are at risk,” Brewster said. “There are so many places on campus that are dark. It’s simply not smart to have people walking in unlit areas.” Brewster mentioned a video that spread on social media several weeks ago of a WVU student using a racial slur towards a black bartender. “I don’t think these things happen in isolation,” he said. “That young man had been empowered to speak like that. I have reasons to believe that many others on this campus feel and think the same way.” “Coming from a small West Virginia town, I really didn’t ever see diversity until I got to WVU,” Brewster said. “We really need to train our student body on what is acceptable and what is not about other cultures and how to respect them.” Brewster said he would be pushing for a multicultural center in the Mountainlair, which is scheduled to be renovated in 2020.

ISAAC OBIOMA
Obioma wants to increase inclusivity in Student Government Association (SGA), engage with other student organizations/Greek life and promote city involvement in WVU. Isaac Obioma is a junior international studies student from Lancaster, Pennsylvania. During his sophomore year, he was SGA Events Director and a member of the BoF. A member of WVU NAACP for the past two years. Last summer, he will be working with the Pennsylvania Office of Vocational Rehabilitation. Obioma works at Coffee Company over the summers and during break. During the 2017, he was studying abroad in Strasbourg, France. Abbi Yachini is the vice president candidate. Obioma said he wanted to make WVU a more inclusive campus if elected. “Many students on campus are not involved, but they’re also not involved in anything,” Yachini said. “They don’t feel like they’re part of the conversation.” Obioma said the first step was social media outreach and engagement. Also, Obioma wants to create a task force that works with student organizations. This will make it easier “for people to contact student government, to voice their concerns to student government.” Obioma said he wanted to bridge the gap between students and city council, to help address problems such as parking, quality of roads and pedestrian safety. “We didn’t go into this saying we want to be student body president and vice president,” Obioma said. “We went into this saying, ‘Hey, well this is an issue we want to work on in the coming year.’”

Vice presidential candidates QUINLAN & KEATON
RILEY KEATON Keaton is the running mate of Michael Quinlan Riley Keaton is a sophomore economics student from Spencer, West Virginia. Keaton is the Legislative Affairs Officer for SGA. In the summer, he is a camp counselor for Camp Horseshoe. In 2016, West Virginia House of Delegates District 11 Republican primary. He lost by 28 votes against the incumbent. He is the vice chair of College Republicans. When Riley Keaton was 18-years old, he ran for the House Delegates. He lost by around 30 votes to the incumbent Republican. Now a sophomore in college, Keaton is going for a different position: student body vice president. Running with presidential candidate Michael Quinlan, their platform focuses on college affordability, advocacy for Greek Life and getting SGA “back to the basics.” “I want to be vice president and I want Michael to be president because I believe that’s what it’s going to take SGA back to the basics, to represent students and to grow WVU for another generation to come,” Keaton said. Keaton said SGA sometimes focuses too much on national politics, instead of student problems. “There’s not much appetite [in SGA] for policy discussion, but there is appetite for politicizing everything involving,” he said. Keaton said the solution to parking is more parking spaces. “The first question we have to ask is what land does WVU own? Is there a property that has a building on it that is set to be demolished in 2025? Is there any way that we can move the demolition up to now and put lines down?” he said.
BREWSTER & LUTHER SYDNEY LUTHER Luther is the running mate of Tyler Brewster Sydney Luther is a junior secondary education student from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. She is the WVU SGA Constituent Affairs and Services Officer. Luther is also a Resident Assistant in Lyon Tower. As an Resident Assistant, Sydney Luther said she had freshmen leave her floor the first day they got there. Luther said she knew from experience that when freshmen get here they need more one-on-one experiences and more involvement in student organization. Luther said student organizations should be brought back into Welcome Week. Luther said, during her freshman year, she was taken to the coliseum to talk to most of WVU’s student organizations. Luther said that some current freshman want to live in the dorm again next year. For those students, Luther wants to promote residence hall floors for non-freshman students. “I believe I should be the student body vice-president because I can be an advocate and a voice for the student concerns across campus,” she said.
OBIOMA & YACHINI ABBI YACHINI Yachini is the running mate of Isaac Obioma Abbi Yachini is a junior political science student from Follansbee, West Virginia. She is the Chief Operations Officer of SGA. She is a sister of Sigma Kappa and is a head lifeguard at the WVU student recreational facility. Abbi Yachini said she would use her position as vice president to elevate the voices of others. “Many students on campus are not involved in SGA, but they’re also not involved in anything,” Yachini said. “They don’t feel like they’re part of the conversation.” Yachini said she wanted SGA to help other student organizations with outreach and to help students get involved with student organizations. She wants to “build bridges, not walls.” Along with Obioma and Yachini’s Unity Campaign, Yachini hopes to work with WVU administration to develop a policy for students experiencing an emergency circumstance, such as a death in the immediate family or hospitalization.

Philly Pretzel Factory meets Morgantown BY CLAIRE O’NEIL CORRESPONDENT
The new Philly Pretzel Factory located in Suncrest Towne Center has been open no more than a month and is already receiving admiration from Morgantown residents for their delicious soft pretzels. Whether you’re looking for a snack or something to bring to a party, Philly Pretzel Factory has a variety of options to choose from at very reasonable prices. Beginning in Philadelphia, Pa., Philly Pretzel Factory is a franchise food company that has more than 200 locations and continues to grow across the country. Kendon Spering, a former West Virginia University student and owner and operator of Morgantown’s Philly Pret-
zel Factory, said she came up with the idea of bringing a pretzel store to Morgantown after an occurrence at a Mountaineer game. Her family would bring the pretzels to games from New Jersey, and friends would ask where they came from. “People would go nuts and say, ‘Where did you get this?’” Spering said. “The idea just clicked to bring one to Morgantown.” Spering graduated last year and now shares a co-ownership with her mother Judith Spering, who lives in southern New Jersey. “West Virginia is near and dear to my heart,” Spering said. “That’s why my mother and I decided to bring one to Morgantown.” The grand opening of the restaurant will be at 11:30 a.m. Friday, March 23. There will be

That’s why my mother and I decided to bring one to Morgantown.” - Kendon Spering, former WVU student and owner/operator of the Philly Pretzel Factory a ribbon cutting ceremony and free pretzels given away starting that day and will last the entire weekend. Spering says her store will also be bringing their concession truck in front of the Mountainlair on Tuesday, March 20 and will be giving away pretzels that day. If you’re not sure what to order, Spering says the most popular item on the menu is the party tray. This is perfect for a tailgate or office party because it contains large amounts of
two different types of pretzels and a dipping sauce of your choice. Philly Pretzel Factory also has everything from a pizza pepperoni melt pretzel to sweet, cinnamon pretzel twists. There are several dipping sauce options, like their signature spicy brown mustard dip. You can even get a flying WV pretzel that’s almost too cute to eat.

The Great American Milk Drive helps to end milk deficiency BY JORDYN JOHNSON CULTURE EDITOR
The Great American Milk Drive is a program designed to help deliver gallons of milk to food pantries and banks across America. In West Virginia alone, 82,798 servings have been donated to 282,000 West Virginians in need. “Almost 50 million individuals are fed by food banks across the United States,” said the Great American Milk Drive. “Despite the growing numbers of impoverished families and children who are in need, there is an immense lack of milk and other dairy products which are donated by the public.” While it might be controversial, milk is seen as very important in young children and adults’ diets. Milk has a lot of vitamin A and D, which leads to healthy bone development.
“When children struggle with hunger and do not have accessible nutrients, they are missing a step in their development and can face health problems/weaknesses as adults,” the Great American Milk Drive said. “It is vital that children consume enough essential nutrients as they’re growing up!” The milk drive has given more than one million gallons of milk around the country since 2014 — that’s more than 16 million servings of milk. “Many animals can provide us with this vital health substance, but cow’s milk is considered the best wholesome supplement for children as well as for adults,” they said. “The health benefits of milk can be achieved from drinking it directly or by consuming dairy products such as cheese, butter, curd, clarified butter or ghee, dairy whitener,
“The Great American Milk Drive helps children. It helps get the calcium that they need.” - The Great American Milk Drive ice cream, cottage cheese or paneer and flavored milk or milk sweets.” The U.S. Department of Agriculture has stated in its “Dietary Guidelines” that including milk in a diet ensures that it is healthy and balanced. Deficiency of milk can cause harmful issues in a person’s life, such as anemia and osteoporosis. “The Great American Milk Drive helps children. It helps get the calcium that they need,” the Great American Milk Drive said. Many children and adults do not have access to milk, and this leads them to not understand the benefits it has for the
human body. The Great American Milk Drive has two goals: To educate the public about the nutritious values of milk and to provide the nutrients to children and adults that need it. “There are multiple organizations that band together and enable the nation’s food banks, processors, retailers and consumers to ensure milk is provided to families who need it most,” they said. “Through donations to the Great American Milk Drive, food pantries can distribute vouchers that people who cannot afford milk can take to grocery stores and redeem them for a gallon of milk.”

Hulu vs. Netflix BY JULIA HILLMAN
ASSISTANT CULTURE EDITOR It’s 2018 — the year of being able to watch literally anything online. This is thanks to the multiple streaming sites that now allow devoted viewers to watch all their favorite shows the day they air. The two most popular streaming sites? Hulu and Netflix. Since their creation, movie and TV fans have debated on which service is the best bang for their buck. Mountaineers strongly voiced their opinions in these debates. So here are some die hard, binge-watching Mountaineers’ opinions on which service is the absolute best. Hulu Hulu stepped it up with its selection recently, especially with TV shows. They get most shows within the day they air, and it’s relatively cheap or free if you have the student version of Spotify. “I’ve always loved Hulu more than Netflix,” said WVU fresh-
man Jacobey Gore. “The shows are more current, and they have way more movies.” Hulu isn’t perfect, though. “Most shows have ads every 10 minutes,” said sophomore Julie Chabot. “It makes my instant show go from 40 minutes to an hour.” Netflix Netflix was the service that started it all. While it began as just ordering DVDs in the mail, it now streams some of the biggest movies within months of them being on the big screen. It also carries a lot of TV shows, and it has its own original series shows, many of which are award-winning. But while Netflix lacks disruptive advertising, it isn’t always the most up to date with its TV show selection. “I’ve always used Netflix because there’s no ads, which I think makes or breaks a streaming service,” said freshman Kiara Cline. Whether you’re a Netflix or Hulu fan, both streaming services are great in their own ways. Or if you can’t decide which one you like more, just join both!

OPINION
School safety after Parkland: Is arming teachers a good idea? BY REBECCA TORO STAFF WRITER
It was only a few days ago that a Georgia social studies teacher brought a gun to school, barricaded himself in his classroom and fired a shot. No one was harmed and he was later arrested. Due to the Parkland, Fla., shooting, President Donald Trump proposed arming teachers with guns. He also said he would offer bonuses to the teachers that undergo gun training. Florida lawmakers also voted to arm teachers, despite fierce opposition from the students and families affected by the Parkland shooting. According to the Tampa Bay Times, a Republican representative referred to arming teachers as “the last line of defense” against a potential school shooter. The proposed measure in Florida would cost around $67 million to implement. President Trump attempted to condemn those who are a threat to schools. “These people are cowards. They’re not going to walk into a school if 20 percent of the teachers have guns — it may be 10 percent or may be 40 percent. And what I’d recommend doing is the people that do carry, we give them a bonus. We give them a little bit of a bonus,” Trump said. “They’ll frankly feel more comfortable having the gun anyway. But you give them a little bit of a bonus.” He’s asking for these teachers to be an educator and become a police officer According to a 2017 survey by the Pew Research Center, 55 percent of all adults oppose allowing teachers to carry guns in schools. Of these adults, Fifty-three percent of parents oppose this ideal. This is also in alignment with the 56 percent of non-parents. Forty-five percent of all adults were in favor with allowing teachers and officials to carry guns in K-12 schools. Jessica Rowan of Morgantown, a teacher at a local children’s daycare, feels it’s too much of a liability for her to be armed as well as the possibility her children’s teachers being armed. “Arming teachers won’t necessarily keep the students safe. Providing appropriate measure such as armed security and metal detectors at the entrances make more sense,” Rowan said. “Why do we protect or airports

and airplanes more than our schools?” Rowan states that she would not feel safer being armed as she and many
others are “trained educators, not security personal or officers.” Many teacher and school safety experts agree with
Rowans opinion on opposing guns in schools. According to Everytown, some of these organizations include The American Federation of Teachers and The National Education Association. Since 2013, there have been 168 incidents of gunfire on K-12 schools, according to Everytown. One in 5 of these incidents were unintentional, and 1 in 6 began due to a verbal altercation that mounted into something more violent. Everytown suggests that states enact the “red flag” laws as ways to intervene before a potential shooter arrives. Under the red flag policy, if a family member or law enforcement sees signs of danger to themselves or others, they are allowed to propose that the court suspends that person from firearm access. As of 2018, only five states have “red flag” laws. Those states are California, Oregon, Washington, Indiana and Connecticut. Many other states are following this example such as Ohio Governor John Kasich. Maryland also proposed the “red flag” bill. This bill was introduced by House Delegate Geraldine Valentino-Smith and is currently in the Maryland General Assembly. A recent incident in a Georgia high school may serve as a
chilling precursor to the reality of teachers having guns in the classroom. Jesse Randall Davidson, 53 and a social studies teacher in Dalton, Ga., fired a shot and barricaded himself in a classroom, according to ABC news. Fortunately, no students were harmed in the incident, but it still led to a mass evacuation of the school as well
as confusion and hysteria on school grounds. By educating and informing teachers, students, law enforcement, this alternative solution can stop a potential shooter before a dangerous act is committed, preventing the need for guns in classrooms in the first place.

Monster Dodgeball hits Morgantown community Are you a catcher, a sniper, a shagger, an arm, a distraction or defense? These words may sound like a hodgepodge of positions from different sports and games, but these are actually all positions in the recreational sport of dodgeball. Morgantown’s new dodgeball league called Monster Dodgeball was organized by Aaron Hess, an alumnus of the fine arts program. He recently moved back to the mountain state from Los Angeles, where he played dodgeball for six years. “Upon coming back here, I thought I’m going to go crazy if I don’t have a venue to play and I really wanted to expose this area to it,” Hess said. “It has an incredible amount of benefit, a lot of which overlaps with other sports,” Hess said. “You learn self-confidence, and you get an incredible cardio workout, which everybody needs. It’s hard
to make yourself run around like crazy for two hours, but this is the best workout I’ve ever gotten.” Monster Dodgeball has been holding an open gym for the past two weeks in hope to inspire interest in dodgeball within the community. “Currently it’s just Tuesday nights,and we have what we call, in dodgeball world, an open gym,” Hess explained. “So, it’s not like a league with teams and shirts and that kind of thing. Currently, it’s just what you would think of as like play at recess or scrimmages.” “Whoever shows up, we split into random, fair teams and then we have fun. You can be competitive, but it’s not that serious right now. Eventually, we do intend to expand it into real league play, but it will take a base of people’s knowledge, skills and exposure to have enough people to make

Student, local, doesn’t matter.” I know, you’re probably confused, I was, as well, when I found out dodgeball was played in an organized and competitive format. Awkward middle school gym class experiences or comedy movies may pop into your head, but these depictions actually couldn’t be further from the reality of the sport of dodgeball. “People have, unfortunately, a semi-negative association with their experience, usually doing it in junior high where you’re forced to do it,” Hess said. “But doing it as an adult is a completely different animal.” “There’s a lot of emphasis on the culture being really friendly, diverse, open and accepting because it can look
like a really aggressive sport, but in reality, because of the way the sport is played and how awesome the culture is, it ends up being just the most accepting things I’ve been a part of.” “Anyone who is at all athletic should try it because it’s so different from how you would imagine it being because its just bizarrely fun. Most people I’ve had play it once become addicted to it and have been playing for two, three, six years.” Whether you’re simply curious about dodgeball as a sport or looking for a unique way of being active, Monster Dodgeball offers an accepting, diverse and open environment to play a very active sport. If you are interested, head over to the Morgantown Learning Academy on Tuesdays from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m., or check out Monster Dodgeball on Instagram and Facebook.

SPORTS Examining the impact of conference tournaments on NCAA tournament seeding WVU year-by-year results under Bob Huggins
BY JOEL NORMAN SPORTS WRITER
College basketball’s regular season is finished. If your team was in the Big 10, then you are a week ahead of the rest of the country. Regardless, the bulk of teams are now heading into tournaments against their conference foes and are preparing for a difficult stretch that means winning, resting for a few hours and then preparing to win again. The day-by-day grind of conference tournaments all happening at once makes for great television and an awesome teaser for the NCAA tournament a week later. Not every win will be perfect. Inevitably on the way, teams will have to scrap and get an ugly win. They’ll take that, though. After all, the only thing that matters in March is collecting wins. However, does that NCAA Tournament mindset extend to conference tournaments? Should it? More importantly, how beneficial is tournament success to NCAA tournament seeding and success? For the WVU men’s basketball team, this is a conundrum. Should head coach Bob Huggins go all-in and do whatever it takes to win a conference tournament at the expense of sacrificing extra rest? Or should Huggins take a lesser approach going into the Big 12 Tournament and not overtax players in an effort to win the title? Count WVU in on wanting to give it their all when they head to Kansas City this week. “If you’re going to play, try to win,” Huggins said. “Somebody said a few years ago that they were happy they lost in the first round because they got more rest.” Senior guard Jevon Carter feels similarly. The rest will come later. “Why would we want to lose?” Carter said. “We want to win the Big 12 tournament, that’s our goal. Our goal is not to lose to get rest.” Most days, coaches don’t want to talk about the past. However, when this question was posed, Huggins recalled one of his finest teams to show

conference title. The third-seeded Mountaineers never faced any of the other top six Big East seeds. That included the two teams ahead of WVU, top-seeded Syracuse and second-seeded Pitt, who both lost in the quarterfinals to eighth-seeded Georgetown and seventh-seeded Notre Dame, respectively. The Mountaineers topped the Hoyas in the title game. In the NCAA tournament, WVU was a two-seed after being the third-best team in the Big
East regular season. This meant that the Mountaineers jumped past Pitt, an NCAA Tournament two-seed, but not Syracuse, a one-seed in the NCAA Tournament. The past two years are also interesting examples. Both years, WVU has played games in three straight days and advanced to the Big 12 Championship Game. Despite finishing with a better regular season record than Oklahoma and therefore a higher conference tourna-

ment seed and defeating them in the 2016 Big 12 Tournament, the Mountaineers were a three-seed in the NCAA Tournament while Oklahoma was a two-seed. It might not have been the wrong call as Oklahoma advanced all the way to the Final Four, and WVU was ousted by 14th-seeded Stephen F. Austin. Nonetheless, it essentially meant that WVU’s win over Oklahoma in the Big 12 Tournament didn’t mean or
change anything. Last year, WVU was a twoseed in the Big 12 tournament. The team again advanced to the championship game, but didn’t face either of the conference’s other teams in the top three seeds. Kansas (topseed) and Baylor (three-seed), were both ousted in the quarterfinal by eighth-seed TCU and sixth-seeded Kansas State, respectively. Even though they went oneand-done while the Mountaineers qualified for the final, both had better NCAA tournament seeds than WVU. Kansas was understandable since it did have a better record than WVU and were ahead of the Mountaineers in the conference standings. But Baylor jumping from third in the conference to a three-seed in the NCAA tournament while the Big 12’s second-best team, WVU, was a four-seed in the NCAA Tournament was indefensible. In 2010, winning the conference championship benefitted WVU in seeding at the NCAA tournament. However, simply getting to the championship game in 2016 and 2017 didn’t change WVU’s seeding much if at all. For Huggins, this presents a dilemma. “I don’t know how much the conference tournament enhances your seed. I think it depends on the committee,” Huggins said. “There’s been years when it’s really helped your seed, and it’s been years when it has no effect on your seed.” Seeding aside, what motivation does Huggins have to win the Big 12 tournament besides pride? Huggins receives an incentive for Big 12 regular season titles and top four regular-season finishes, but not conference tournament titles. The Mountaineers have put themselves in an excellent place moving forward. They have a strong regular season record and will have high seeds in both the Big 12 Tournament and NCAA Tournament. But would a conference championship change their NCAA Tournament seeding? Maybe, but maybe not.

Passion, determination drives WVU’s McHenry BY AARON HOST SPORTS WRITER
West Virginia senior diver Logan McHenry is preparing for his next challenge of the season in zone meets. Hailing from Ventnor City, N.J., McHenry started diving at Atlantic City High School, but has been in aquatic sports for most of his life. Learning to dive from his father, a former diver in his day, McHenry considers his dad as his role model. “He has a really good work ethic,” McHenry said. While still in high school, McHenry was captain for three years and earned two all-state selections, as well as MVP honors. When it came time to choose a college, McHenry came on a recruiting trip to Morgantown. The academic prestige and team comradery was impressive to McHenry. “West Virginia had the best team chemistry,” McHenry said. “They really made it feel like a family on the team.” Over the years, McHenry gathered a lot of experience
“West Virginia had the best team chemistry. They really made it feel like a family on the team.” -Logan McHenry while on the WVU Diving team. When McHenry was a freshman he earned All-Big 12 honors with a fifth-place finish on the three-meter dive with a preliminary score of 309.85 and scoring a season-best on the one-meter dive with a score of 274.04 against TCU. Moving into his sophomore year, McHenry accomplished many things for the Mountaineers, such as finishing 21st on the platform while scoring 218.05 at the NCAA Zone Championships, placing third on the three-meter dive with a score of 275.80 and placing eighth on the platform, scoring 221.50 at Ohio State. McHenry’s junior year
brought him more accolades as he was named to the All-Big 12 First Team in the three-meter dive and AllBig 12 Second Team in the one-meter dive. So far in his senior year, McHenry has been named to the All-Big 12 First Team and named Big 12 Diver of the Week on Oct. 19, while also finishing third on the one-meter dive at the Big 12 Championships with a score of 330.15. He also won the one-meter dive against Pitt on Jan. 18 with a score of 317.77. This upcoming meet for McHenry is similar to regionals for the NCAA. This meet is more pointed toward the individual diver.

CHRIS JACKSON MANAGING EDITOR
WVU can make postseason run, but a lot of work needs to be done The postseason is finally upon us, so it’s time to examine just how far this West Virginia team can go and what needs to be done in order to maximize its potential. West Virginia has shown plenty of promise. After a season-opening — and very disappointing — loss to Texas A&M in Germany, WVU riled off 15 straight wins and was on top of the world, or at least very close to it. WVU climbed as high up as No. 2 in the AP Poll, marking the highest ranking the program has seen since 1959, back when Jerry West was tearing up college basketball at Stansbury Hall, before West became an NBA Hall of Famer and won an NBA Championship with the Los Angeles Lakers. During that time, WVU beat No. 15 Virginia. It held star sophomore guard Kyle Guy in check in the first half before he finally got into a bit of a rhythm in the second half, fighting his way through screens for uncontested threes. Then WVU would beat potential Wooden Award winner Trae Young and the then-No. 7 Oklahoma Sooners. Young still scored 29 points, right at his season average, but it took 22 shots to do that. He also made just three of his 12 threepoint attempts. Adding to that impressive win was the fact that WVU held Young to five assists and eight turnovers, with the five assists tying a season-low at the time. Young would later record a season-low one assist in the second meeting against WVU, which was another Mountaineer victory. Needless to say, this WVU team has shown what it’s made of. When you go 15-1, win 15 straight games, shutdown college basketball’s top player and become the No. 2 team in the country, you definitely are a very good basketball team. But WVU has also struggled. Second half leads have come and gone on so many occasions. The No. 2 national ranking is now No. 20. And WVU just finished the regular season at 22-9 overall, going 7-8 since compiling that impressive 15-1 mark earlier this year. So, what does WVU need
to do to achieve its full potential and go as far as it can in the postseason, starting with this week’s Big 12 Tournament, followed by the NCAA Tournament?
1. Play a full 40 minutes: This point can’t be stressed enough. If WVU holds a few more leads, it likely wins the Big 12 regular season title, gets the No. 1 seed in the conference tournament and ends Kansas’ ridiculous run at the top of the conference. Instead, it is now in third place, with a lot of those blown second half leads paving the way to this spot. There were the two double-digit leads squandered against Big 12 regular season champion Kansas. There was the blown lead at Texas Tech in the second half. There was the botched final minute against Oklahoma State. There was the seven-point lead that vanished at TCU. And, of course, the 17-point lead that slipped away against Kentucky. If WVU cannot let second half leads disappear, then it can easily make a run in the postseason. Look at the first meeting between Texas (it won that game (86-51) and the second meeting versus Kansas State (it won that game 89-51) as a prime indicators of how to play. 2. Get Teddy Allen going: When freshman forward Teddy Allen was going in the first half of the year, so were the Mountaineers. Allen put forth scoring outputs of 15, 22 and 20 points during the first three Big 12 games, hitting 71 percent of his shots in that span. He was scoring in bunches off the bench and seemed to be on top of the world, just like his WVU team. Then he went into a funk, just like his WVU team. Since then, he has been held scoreless six times, not appeared in two other games and scored 10-plus points twice. If Allen can regain his form and play with the same aggressiveness we saw earlier this season, that will pay huge dividends for this team. 3. Production from the seniors: There is no question that how senior guards Jevon Carter and Daxter Miles Jr. lead the
way. Sure, Miles might not be the second best player on the team, but he is definitely one of the leaders (that nod goes to sophomore forward Sagaba Konate right now, and that is not at all anything against the talented 1,000-point scorer in Miles). Just look at how the two fared on Senior Night against Texas Tech. They combined for 39 points and 11 assists, lifting WVU to a big win at the Coliseum last Monday. When those two are doing things on both ends of the floor, this is a hard to team to beat. There is no other program in college basketball that has the experience and pedigree that Carter and Miles bring to the WVU backcourt. Both have scored more than 1,000 points in their careers, played in two Big 12 Championships so far, three NCAA Tournaments to this point and two Sweet 16s. And Carter is also the reigning Defensive Player of the Year and one of 15 finalists for the Wooden Award, not to mention the fact he just became the first player in Power 5 history to reach 1,500 points, 500 assists, 500 rebounds and 300 steals in a career.

4. Energy: The perfect game I look for in this category is last Monday against Texas Tech. It reminded me of last year’s win over Notre Dame in the NCAA Tournament when WVU got off to a rapid 10-0 start and never looked back en route to a Sweet 16 berth. In this Texas Tech game the vibe was eerily different at the Coliseum. WVU was dunking. It was hitting shots. And it was playing defense. That’s how WVU piled on a ridiculous 16-0 run to begin the game before winning 84-74. 5. Offense: We know how important defense has been to this program since the 2014-15 season, but when the offense is clicking like the defense, WVU is nearly impossible to beat. WVU is 5-1 when it hits more than 50 percent of its shots, with the only loss coming when it mishandled the final few possessions in the 88-85 loss to Oklahoma State last month.
