Huggins Delivers a Message to WVU Fans

"Come watch our guys play in Charleston." - West Virginia head coach Bob Huggins

The West Virginia University alumni basketball Best Virginia is preparing for the upcoming TBT with the first round of action for the West Virginia region beginning Sunday July 24 as Best Virginia will square off against Virginia Dream. 

WVU head coach Bob Huggins has watched his group of former Mountaineers practice at the Mountaineers practice facility since last Friday. Huggins appeared with his former forward John Flowers in a video released by the Final Fourcast to tell Mountaineer fans to find their way to the Charleston Coliseum to support some of the Mountaineer greats while they compete for the grand prize of over $1 million. 

Best Virginia will host a skills camp for kids ages 6-13 in Charleston on July 22 (South Charleston Community Center). Tickets and sign-ups are online now at bestvirginia.org.
