GOLD-BLUE REVIEW
The West Virginia men’s basketball team held the Gold-Blue Debut last weekend with the Gold Team defeating the Blue Team, 74-57. Sophomore Jalen Bridges led all scorers with 21 points and five made three-pointers off of eight attempts. The Fairmont native also led the Mountaineers with eight rebounds, four being offensive and four being defensive. Bridges was able to finish the 2020-21 season strong, after a slow start, and now he is showing that he is ready to step up his consistency and offensive contributions.
