MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Jarrod West’s name is etched in West Virginia basketball history thanks in large part to his buzzer-beater in the 1998 NCAA Tournament which sent the Mountaineers to the Sweet 16. He also has great affection for the kelly green and white of Marshall.
The TBT selection committee took full advantage of an intriguing matchup opportunity as Best Virginia will face Herd That in the opening round of July 5. West will once again be calling the shots from the sideline for the WVU alumni squad.
