Non-conference play continues Tuesday night for the West Virginia Mountaineers as they get set to square off with the North Carolina Central Eagles. Unfortunately, they'll be down a key piece as senior forward Tucker DeVries has been ruled out indefinitely with an upper-body injury.

In his place, head coach Darian DeVries has inserted Eduardo Andre into the starting five. In seven games this season, Andre is averaging 3.7 points and 3.6 rebounds per game.
