Recap Jevon Carter scored 24 points and West Virginia s full-court pressure defense forced 30 Northern Kentucky turnovers on the way to a 107-61 victory in the 2015-16 season opener at the WVU Coliseum. It was the 500th all-time victory for the Mountaineers at the 45-year-old facility. West Virginia jumped out to an early double-digit lead and the margin swelled to 50, 62-32, at halftime. Northern Kentucky, still transitioning to Division I basketball, had trouble handling the Mountaineer press and West Virginia s bigs on the glass. Junior forward Devin Williams pulled down 15 rebounds to go with 18 points, while senior forward Jonathan Holton contributed 14 points and 12 boards. West Virginia had a 47-26 rebounding advantage and outscored the Norse 52-28 in the paint. Sophomore guard Daxter Miles Jr. contributed 19 points on eightof-13 shooting; Carter was also efficient shooting the ball, hitting seven of his 11 field goal attempts and all seven of his free throw tries. I thought we played really well in the first half, said West Virginia coach Bob Huggins. Then we came out in the second half very complacent. I think at one time we forced five turnovers and we had five turnovers and at one time they were leading in the second half by three or five. That s not what we want. We ve got to do a better job of getting them ready to come out in the second half. All 10 West Virginia players who got into the game scored. An announced crowd of 10,120 for the game was pleasing to Huggins. We need the support, he said. If we re going to be a consistent big-time program let s be a be a consistent big-time program. I know it s hard to get from a lot of places but when you can come, come, and when you can t come give your tickets to somebody else. Tyler White led Northern Kentucky with 17 points. Lavone Holland 11 added 11. Notebook The Mountaineers now own a 92-15 all-time record in season openers, including a 98-9 record in home openers. The crowd of 10,120 was the fourth time in Coliseum history that WVU had a crowd of 10,000 or more in the month of November. Northern Kentucky was the 168th team to play a game against WVU in the Coliseum (non-exhibition). WVU is 132-36 against teams making their first appearance in the Coliseum. Recap Jevon Carter and Devin Williams scored 19 points each to power 22nd-ranked West Virginia to an 86-73 victory over James Madison at the Charleston Civic Center. The Mountaineers (2-0) led throughout, but could never completely distance themselves from the feisty Dukes. It was a good game, they re a good team, they re well coached and if they shoot it like that they re not going to lose very many, said West Virginia coach Bob Huggins. They made some hard shots tonight. West Virginia began the game with Carter s alley oop dunk, and then the Mountaineers used their size in the paint to build an early seven-point lead on consecutive baskets by Jonathan Holton and Williams. An Esa Ahmad 3 from the wing and an Elijah Macon tip-in got it to nine, 15-6, and then a pretty Macon pass to a cutting Holton gave West Virginia its first double-digit advantage at 27-17. Shakir Brown kept James Madison around in the first half, dropping in a pair of 3s and hitting all six of his free throw attempts. The Dukes were 12 of 12 from the line until Tom Vodanovich missed the second of two with 2:27 left. West Virginia s biggest lead of the first half was 14, 41-27, following a pair of Williams free throws with 5:18 remaining. Williams scored on the opening possession of the second half, and the Mountaineers used constant pressure to build the lead back to 14, 60-46, on baskets by Nathan Adrian and Elijah Macon following consecutive JMU turnovers. The Dukes (1-1) answered with five straight from Vodanovich and Joey McLean, and then two Brown charity throws reduced West Virginia s lead to seven, 60-53. Leading by nine, 70-61, with six minutes left, West Virginia used a 6-0 spurt, two of those coming on an Ahmad no-look pass to Daxter Miles Jr. on an inbounds play and two more coming on a Williams dunk off of a Dukes turnover to make it 76-61. The Mountaineers biggest lead of the game was 19 after Holton s follow-up basket. Holton contributed 12 points and 12 rebounds while Miles Jr. finished with 11 for the Mountaineers. West Virginia shot 43.9 percent overall, 37.5 percent from 3, and 73.3 percent from the free throw line. WVU also made nine steals and forced 19 turnovers. Notebook WVU improved to 64-20 all-time at the Charleston Civic Center and 72-22 all-time in Charleston. Recap West Virginia eclipsed the 100-point plateau for the second time this season with a 103-62 victory over Stetson in the first game of the Continental Tire Las Vegas Invitational at the WVU Coliseum. Junior forward Devin Williams extended his double-double streak to three games, scoring a career-high 23 points with 10 rebounds and four assists. Williams went 13-for-16 from the free-throw line. Senior guard Jaysean Paige (19), sophomore forward Elijah Macon (18), sophomore guard Daxter Miles Jr. (13) and freshman forward Esa Ahmad (11) also reached double digits. Ahmad finished with eight rebounds and four assists, while junior guard Tarik Phillip had a career-high 10 assists. It wasn t a thing of beauty. We turned it over too many times, 18 times, which is unacceptable, coach Bob Huggins said. We really didn t guard at all. We were very flat a day earlier at practice and I just figured I d sit there a while and let them try and figure it out themselves and obviously that didn t work. We just weren t in it. We tried to run a couple of sets and had guys in the wrong places and we ve been going over those sets for about five-consecutive days, so it wasn t they didn t know, they just weren t in it. The Mountaineers (3-0) wore down the Hatters (0-3) throughout the contest on the boards, finishing with a 50-29 rebounding advantage. West Virginia turned Stetson over 19 times and capitalized on those mistakes with 30 points off turnovers. WVU also scored 60 points in the paint and had 26 second-chance points. The West Virginia offense began the game in a rut and the Mountaineers trailed for the majority of the first half, the biggest deficit being eight at the 10:13 mark. However, a pair of free throws by Paige at the 5:19 mark gave the Mountaineers the lead for good at 31-29 ẆVU went on a 21-6 run following the free throws to end the half with a 51-35 advantage. There were four lead changes and West Virginia s 41-point advantage at the end of the game was the largest lead of the contest. Stetson was paced by freshman guard Leo Goodman and freshman forward Derick Newton with 14 points and 12 points, respectively. Notebook Elijah Macon finished with a career-high 18 points on 8-of-8 shooting from the field. WVU shot over 50 percent for the first time since Dec. 30, 2014, when the Mountaineers shot 50.4 percent against Virginia Tech.

Recap Three West Virginia players had double-double games as the 22ndranked Mountaineers rolled to a 97-44 victory over Bethune-Cookman at the WVU Coliseum. Devin Williams scored 12 points and grabbed 10 rebounds, Jonathan Holton contributed 11 points and 11 rebounds and Elijah Macon came off the bench to produce 13 points and 10 boards for the 4-0 Mountaineers. It was the first time that has happened for a WVU team since February 8, 1994 when Marsalis Basey, Ricky Robinson and Zain Shaw accomplished the feat in West Virginia s 78-71 victory over eighth-ranked Temple at the Coliseum. Jaysean Paige and Daxter Miles Jr. scored 14 points, while Jevon Carter had 11 and junior college transfer Teyvon Myers finished with 10 in the win. We did some nice things and we did some things that weren t very good, said West Virginia coach Bob Huggins. We turned it over 16 times against a 2-3 zone and that s way too many. We ve got to get to a point where those are in single digits. For Williams, it was his fourth consecutive double-double game to start the season, the first time that has happened since 1967 when forward Carey Bailey did it. An announced crowd of 6,196, minus WVU students on Thanksgiving break, got to see the entire roster of available players for a good portion of the second half after the Mountaineers built a 45-22 halftime lead. West Virginia shot 52.2 percent from the floor, had a 50-32 advantage on the glass and made 15 steals that contributed to 30 Wildcat turnovers. I thought Devin was really solid for us, said Huggins. He was working. When you get a 6-9, 260-pound guy out there moving his feet the way he was trying to move his feet that s pretty good effort. He s really working and he s in the gym all of the time and that s kind of been the formula for success. Josue Salaam was the only Bethune-Cookman player to reach double figures with 12 points. This was the second game of the Continental Tire Las Vegas Invitational following the game against Stetson three days earlier. Notebook Bethune-Cookman made its first appearance in the WVU Coliseum. WVU had seven guys in double figures for the first time since 2012 against VMI. Recap Devin Williams scored 23 points and grabbed 12 rebounds to lead 22nd-ranked West Virginia to a 67-59 victory over Richmond at the Orleans Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. Williams made nine of 11 field goal attempts and pulled down a game-best five offensive rebounds for his fifth double-double of the season. He becomes the first player since All-American Rod Thorn in 1960-61 to start the season with five straight double-doubles. Thorn had six straight double-doubles to begin that season. Devin was absolutely terrific, said West Virginia coach Bob Huggins. I thought Devin was a man and I thought Esa (Ahmad) made some good plays for us when we were struggling. West Virginia (5-0) led by 12 at one point in the first half before taking a 35-31 lead into the locker room at halftime. The Mountaineers led by eight midway through the second half but couldn t shake off the pesky Spiders. Richmond was averaging 90.8 points and shooting better than 50 percent from the floor, but could manage just 59 points on 39.1 percent shooting. The Spiders hit only two of their 15 3-point tries, including missing all seven in the second half. For the most part we got pretty good pressure on them, said Huggins. All we talked about was chase them off the (3-point line). We could stand in there and let them shoot it because they shoot it really well. Forward Terry Allen led Richmond with 20 points, the senior getting half of those from the free throw line. There were a combined 52 fouls called in the game with two disqualifications, T.J. Cline for Richmond and Nathan Adrian for West Virginia. Jevon Carter was the only other WVU player to reach double figures with 13 points. West Virginia also struggled to make shots, hitting just 43.8 percent of its field goal tries, including 15.4 percent from 3. Notebook This is the second straight year the Mountaineers have started the season 5-0; in 2014-15, the Mountaineers were 7-0 before falling to LSU, 74-73, in the Big 12/SEC Challenge in Morgantown. Recap Five Mountaineers reached double figures to lead WVU to an impressive 72-50 victory over San Diego State in the championship game of the Continental Tire Las Vegas Invitational at Orleans Arena in Las Vegas. The Mountaineers harassed the super athletic Aztecs all game, forcing 21 San Diego State turnovers and limiting them to just 13 made field goals, including a goose egg from 3 in nine attempts. Including the 2-of-15 shooting from Richmond behind the arc, WVU s opponents were just 2-of-24 from 3 during the two games in Vegas. I thought we played better as a team today than we have at any time up to this point, said Huggins afterward. San Diego State had trouble making them from anywhere against West Virginia s suffocating pressure. After spotting the Aztecs an early 3-0 lead, the Mountaineers turned up the heat and built a six-point lead the second TV timeout midway through the first half. Jaysean Paige scored eight straight points to begin the run, and following the stoppage of play, Nathan Adrian knocked down a 3, Jevon Carter added a short jumper and Adrian got another one close to the basket to give the Mountaineers a 13-point lead. West Virginia kept its lead in the eight-to-10-point range for the remainder of the first half. Midway through the second half is when the Aztecs really struggled to score and West Virginia s lead began to swell. Devin Williams scored close to the basket on three straight possessions to put West Virginia ahead by 16, 46-30, and the Mountaineers got it to 18 with 10:48 remaining in the game and a Daxter Miles Jr. jumper. West Virginia (6-0) got contributions from everyone that played, including five reaching double figures led by Miles 14 points. Jonathan Holton and Carter scored 12 while Williams and Paige added 10 points each. Williams streak of five straight double-double games ended, however, the junior only managing to pull down nine rebounds. WVU had a 42-28 advantage on the glass and also shot 50 percent in the second half following a frigid first half from the field. Guard Jeremy Hemsley was the only Aztec player to reach double figures with 14 points. Williams, who scored 23 points and grabbed 12 rebounds in the 67-59 victory over Richmond, was named tournament MVP. Miles Jr. and Carter were selected to the all-tournament team. Notebook WVU won an in-season tournament for the second year in a row. Last year, WVU won three games to win the Puerto Rico Tip-Off.
