MORGANTOWN, W.Va. – West Virginia’s women’s basketball roster size has shrunk since opening the Big 12 season against TCU on Jan. 2, but in every other way the Mountaineers have grown by leaps and bounds.
West Virginia (17-6, 8-4) has won eight of its 11 games since opening the Big 12 schedule with a lackluster 62-48 loss to the Horned Frogs. The Mountaineers will get a chance to demonstrate their midseason growth spurt in a 2 p.m. tip against TCU (18-6, 8-5) at WVU Coliseum.
“We’ve grown defensively, we’ve grown as a team and we have more discipline,” said senior forward Naomi Davenport.
