Can Ward Break Into WV's Lineup for Dec 3
George McLaughlin analyzes whether Kenny Ward can crack West Virginia's starting five for the December 3 home game against William and Mary. The piece weighs Ward's height 6-4 and 193 pounds, skill set, and potential lineup shifts with Rod Thorn and Jim Ritchie. It contrasts Ward's limited prior action with expected contributors Posch Patrone and Shuck and notes other team injuries and depth. It also criticizes a rival morning paper for copying a bowling feature.
