MESS VIRGINIA: Sloppy play dooms West Virginia, Mountaineers fall to Western Kentucky in Myrtle Beach semifinal

Hoo boy.

If you missed that game, for whatever reason, consider yourself blessed.

The West Virginia Mountaineers are now 1-2 on the 2018-19 basketball season after falling to the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers (3-1), 63-57, in a Myrtle Beach Invitational semifinal game.

I’d be lying if I told you I had a lot of hope about where this team is headed right now, which is a stark contrast to my reaction following the loss to the Buffalo Bulls last Friday night. I thought there were glimpses of promise in that game, but tonight’s performance has me second guessing everything I originally thought.
