The WVU Women started off the night by advancing to the Women's NIT Final 4 by beating Wake Forest 65-52. Meg Bulger led the way for the WVU Women with 18 points. They advance to the semi-final game at Kentucky Monday evening. If they win that game, there is a strong possibility that they will host the WNIT Championship game right here in Morgantown. Way to go ladies!!!
The night finished off with John Beilein completing a twenty-six year old promise to his wife when he told her he would some day coach against Legendary Coach Bobby Knight.
The Mountaineers beat Texas Tech 65-60 to advance to the NCAA Tournament Elite Eight for the first time since 1959. It was a great game, but it was also a game where I must have lost ten pounds from pacing. I guess you can say Bobby Knight was "Pittsnogled" as Kevin Pittsnogle pumped in 22 leading the Mountaineers to victory.
WVU plays Louisville Saturday in the Regional Finals and a spot in the NCAA Final 4. I'll be glued to the television again for this game.
Good luck to both teams.
