Yes, Virginia, there's an extra "i"
These T-shirts are hardly worthy of the NIT champions.
They say “West Virgina” -- without the second “i” before the “a.”
The Mountaineers wore them anyway after their 78-73 victory over Clemson on Thursday night, their first NIT title in 65 years.
WVU sports information director Shelly Poe told the Associated Press that the NIT printed the shirts. Calls to tournament officials were not immediately returned Friday.
West Virginia coach John Beilein was heading to the Final Four in Atlanta on Friday and could not be reached for
comment.
