Balanced attack carries West Virginia past Youngstown, 106-72

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Beetle Bolden said he knew teammate Chase Harler would be open. Pretty good guess on this day, because everyone generally was.

“I didn’t have enough time to reach back, so I just whipped the pass behind my back to him,” Bolden said after scoring 15 points with five assists in West Virginia’s 106-72 victory against Youngstown State on Saturday.

Harler obliged by making the 3-pointer. There were a lot of those, too.

The Penguins (3-6) attempted 36 and made nine of them in coach Jerrod Calhoun’s return to the WVU Coliseum after being an assistant under Huggins from 2007-12.
