WVU Seeks A D Suggestion After Hunter Mismatch
Sports editor Bob Baker reports WVU coach Joedy Gardner faces a call for easier opening games. A proposed schedule would pit the Mountaineers against an West Virginia Conference team like Salem, Morris Harvey, Glenville State, or Fairmont State instead of the Hunter College blowout. Baker notes Warren Baker led WVU with 19 points, Russell Chapman 18, and Stan Boskovich 10 as WVU prepares for Wake Forest and Purdue home contests with guard Bob Huggins fit to return.
