He is 6 feet 10, and he is on a mission to dismantle every opposing offense.

With each block, forward Yor Anei foiled the West Virginia men’s basketball team’s plans during Oklahoma State’s 85-77 victory Saturday afternoon in Gallagher-Iba Arena.

Anei’s eight blocks set a Cowboy freshman record.

Byron Houston, the previous leader, blocked six shots against Iowa State and tied his mark against Oklahoma during the 1988-89 season. Anei broke Houston’s record with a swift swat 30 years later.

Mike Boynton, OSU’s coach, said players such as Anei boost fans’ energy.
