Cincinnati leads 60-58 at the final media stop of the night. #Bearcats go up 10 and immediately give up an 8-0 run. Mountaineers have all the momentum into the final segment.
A huge pair of catch-and-shoot triples for Day Day Thomas gives Cincinnati a 55-50 lead with 8:15 to go. Thomas matches Skillings team high with 12. #Bearcats
WVU up 46-44 at the under 12 stop. Skillings has 12 and Newman 7 for the #Bearcats
WVU leads 35-32 at the first media stop of the half. #Bearcats lose the opening segment of the half 12-5 while fouling a bad 3 point shooter twice for 5 points.
WVU up 12-9 at the under 12 media. 5 turnovers have led to 8 of the 12 Mountaineer points. Most of the annoyingly sloppy variety. #Bearcats
