WHEELING PARK â Alumni from WVU and assorted Mountain East Conference teams will square off Friday, July 9 in an exhibition at Wheeling Park High School.
The team of WVU alumni, Best Virginia, is slated to participate in The Basketball Tournament, branded at TBT, which will start in mid-July. The MEC alumni team, Underground Kings, are also hopeful that they will take part in the million-dollar, 64-team, single-elimination tournament. The Mountain East Conference is a very respectable conference, Chase Harler, a player on Best Virginia, said. The Ohio Valley has witnessed great players come through MEC. I can still remember sold out crowds between West Liberty and Wheeling Jesuit. Underground Kings will give us a great matchup and get us ready for the TBT.
