The West Virginia Mountaineers (11-17, 3-12 Big 12) snapped their five-game losing streak in the most dramatic fashion possible, a 101-96 triple overtime thriller over Jamie Dixon’s TCU Horned Frogs (18-10, 6-9 Big) this evening in Morgantown.
The Mountaineers may have actually won the game on a missed goaltending call with 24 seconds left in regulation that was ultimately called a shot clock violation. TCU ended up turning the ball over on the ensuing possession, and Jordan McCabe missed an attempt at the game winner to send the game into overtime.
McCabe recorded his first career double-double with 25 points, 11 assists, 6 steals and 5 rebounds to lead West Virginia.
