West Virginia made an impressive march through the Big 12 Conference tournament with back-to-back-to-back wins against the top three-seeded teams, including league regular season champion Baylor in the title game.
Now the Mountaineers, seeded sixth in the NCAA tournament's Bridgepoint Bracket, look to use that momentum to their advantage when they begin postseason play against Colonial Athletic Conference champion Elon College on Friday afternoon in a first-round game at the Xfinity Center in College Park, Md.
The winner of that contest will move on to face either No. 3 Maryland or No. 14 Bucknell in the second round on Sunday.
