Snapping a three-game skid, the Mountaineers (17-6, 6-4 Big 12) forced 15 turnovers and punctuated their wire-to-wire victory with runs of 14-2 and 14-3 in the second half.

James "Beetle" Bolden added 13 points, Teddy Allen scored 12 off the bench and Wes Harris added 10. Point guard Jevon Carter dished out 11 assists to mitigate his own 2-of-8 shooting.
