    WEST LIBERTY, W.Va. – The West Liberty men's basketball team looks to keep it rolling this afternoon when they host West Virginia Wesleyan in a Mountain East Conference division crossover game.
    Tipoff is set for 4:30 p.m. but in accordance with the MEC's safe competition guidelines, no spectators will be permitted inside the arena.                     
    Coach Ben Howlett's Hilltoppers (6-3) posted their second straight blowout win on Wednesday, a 117-78 pasting of Alderson Broaddus. Will Yoakum's 23 points paced a balanced attack for a red-hot WLU squad that led by as many as 30 points in the first half before coasting home.
    The hard-luck Bobcats (0-9) fell to Wheeling on Wednesday by an 85-77 count. Jaylin Reed's 18 points topped five double-figure scorers for Wesleyan.
    Coach Howlett took a few minutes out of his Friday afternoon game prep to preview Sunday's game. Click on the photo above to hear his thoughts.
