GRANVILLE, W.Va. – If you saw the looks on their faces, it would be impossible to imagine the sting going away any time soon, if ever.
But West Virginia coach Randy Mazey and his players tried their best to ease the pain of their season-ending 11-10 loss to Texas A&M by focusing on the fact they were there in the first place. The Mountaineers were able to accomplish something that would have once seemed impossible by hosting a regional. Prior to this weekend, postseason baseball had not been played in Morgantown since 1955.
“All I can do is treat this like a win,” Mazey said moments after watching his team squander an eight-run lead.
