Two games into the season, West Virginia has already gone off script, and not in a good way. The Mountaineers, who scheduled a manageable home slate to open the campaign prior to the Fort Myers Tip-Off next week, saw things go off track in a 73-65 upset loss to Monmouth on Friday.

by

In an unexpected twist to the Central New York rivalry, Syracuse will try to halt a two-game losing streak to Colgate when the teams meet Tuesday on the Orange’s home court. Syracuse (2-0) had won 54 straight meetings with the Raiders prior to dropping a 100-85 decision in November 2021. Colgate then doubled down by defeating the Orange 80-68 last November, stopping Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim from earning his 1,000th career win in the process. … more

On Tuesday, Virginia looks for more of the same from the 6-foot-11 Buchanan when it hosts North Carolina A&T of … more
