West Virginia Basketball Shows Its Resiliency In Early Big 12 Play

Recently, the Mountaineers have faced trying conditions and showed they are unfazed being tested.

Resilient (adjective) - being able to withstand or recover quickly from difficult conditions.

Since West Virginia started Big 12 conference play in the 2015-2016 season, the Mountaineers have faced their fair share of adversity and managed to stay unbeaten.

In the Big 12 opener against the Kansas State Wildcats, the Mountaineers faced a tough atmosphere on the road and their first halftime deficit of the season. Ultimately the game would be decided 87-83 in double overtime in the favor of WVU.
