After a 24-game absence due to a hamstring injury, reigning Big 12 Player of the Year JJ Wetherholt returned to the West Virginia lineup this past weekend against Kansas and helped lead the Mountaineers to a 3-0 sweep of the Jayhawks. With the series win, WVU (19-12, 8-4 Big 12) moves into a tie with Oklahoma at the top of the Big 12 standings after the Sooners lost their rubber match with Oklahoma State on Sunday.
