Today the Mountaineers will be taking on Oklahoma State Cowboys for senior day. WVU is coming off of a close road loss to Kansas Tuesday night. Jevon Carter and Daxter Miles Jr. have definitely stepped up in the absence of Staten and Browne, but with missed free throws and the large number of fouls, their hard-work did not payoff in this match. However, it will not go unnoticed as these players on the court are the future of this Mountaineers basketball team.
