Morgantown, WV – No. 21 Western Virginia seeks revenge against No. 24 in Oklahoma on Saturday.
Oklahoma State handed over to West Virginia her second loss of the season three weeks ago at Stillwater (OK). The climbers led most of the first half, leading by nine and taking a five-point advantage in halftime, 38-33.
Cowgirls came out of the break and caught inertia in the second half with a 7-0 mileage to open the third quarter to lead and hold the mountaineers off to win 64-57.
“We didn’t play very well. I think we scored 24 of these 57 in the first quarter and we just couldn’t understand that it was to score until the game continued. So, we’ll have to go back to the drawing board a little and see if we can take a few pictures, “said Western Virginia Chief Mark Kellogia. “I had the feeling that we had some good pictures in this game and we just didn’t shoot it very well.”
The Sophomore Guard Stailee Heard led the road with the highest 18 points and seven rebounds, hitting its average for the season of the best team 17.0 ppg and 8.1 RPG.
Really athletic, difficult, physically, strong. I think it is a kind of heart rate, the strength of their group. He really plays the four, but it is probably like a wing they play in the four most of the time. We have not done as well as we should have or should we do just because I think they are being fed on what it does. “
Oklahoma State drives a four -game winning series, including a victory over TCU No. 9.
“I think they are elite at times offensively with their ability to essentially put four guards around some players who have played very well,” Kellog said. “They received a big victory over TCU last week, which was a huge victory for them and their program. So, I think they believe, play with confidence, play with a whisk, but they are difficult, physically, guard and go out and insert. “
West Virginia split a two -game trip through the last Arizona, marking a victory over Arizona before the second match against Arizona was dropped.
“Obviously last week a mixed bag and one was a really good performance in Arizona and relatively finished and it looked like the offensive end, I played quite well in the protective end, and then I went down to Tuson and just did not play very well, for To be honest, “Kellog said.
“I think it was one of our oldest defensive performances of the year with some of our indicators we have, and insulting, it was not much better,” Kellog said. “To their credit, they made us what I feel like we were doing many teams and just pulled us out of our structure and rhythm.”
JJ Quinerly leads a trio of mountaineers security medium double figures. The senior has published an average of 19.4 PPG and a large 12 conference leading to 3.2 thefts per game.
