In a span of 40 minutes, the most unique season in the history of WVU basketball came to a record setting ending. A team ranked 13th in the preseason polls finished with the most losses in school history.
The dream of a late-season resurrection and CBI championship ended instead with a record setting defeat. The Mountaineers 109-91 loss to Coastal Carolina established a new record for most points ever allowed by an opponent at the Coliseum.
A season mired in discipline problems which led to the dismissal of two players, also included the first half benching of WVU’s leading rebounder Derek Culver for tardiness.
