The West Virginia Mountaineers are just minutes away from squaring off with the UMass Minutemen.

What to watch for

Malek Abdelgowad vs. Amani Hansberry - UMass wants Abdelgowad to touch the ball as often as possible, whether it's to score it himself or redirect the defensive attention. Hansberry is at a size disadvantage, but his athleticism will make for a good matchup underneath. In his first game as a Mountaineer, Hansberry recorded nine points, twelve rebounds, and two blocks.
