MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Freshman Oscar Tshiebwe delivered in his first game at WVU Coliseum, recording a double-double to lead West Virginia to a 78-70 win over Duquense in a charity exhibition.
Tshiebwe scored 17 points on 7 of 10 shooting from the field and grabbed 14 rebounds.
Fellow newcomer Sean McNeil provided some offensive spark off the bench, finishing second on the team with 12 points. McNeil was 2-for-5 from three-point range.
The Mountaineers showed they have several things to work on before the regular season tips off against Akron in a week.
“I didn’t like much,” said West Virginia coach Bob Huggins.
