Some things are not meant to be and a win was not meant to be, again, for the Mountaineers Tuesday night in Lawrence.
The Mountaineers fell 79-65 to Kansas as a sparse crowd looked on, remaining winless all-time at the Phog Allen Fieldhouse.
Sean McNeil put together a memorable first half, giving the Mountaineers a first half of hope. McNeil started the game hot, scoring 14 of West Virginia’s first 18 points. He capped off his torrent of shots from outside the arc with a wild, straight-on shot from seven feet behind the arc that banked in.
