---- press release below from USBASKET -----

We wish the Mountaineers ownership would have finished the season but understand the ABA league in which they played last year is much better suited for their organization than the ownership governed NABL.

Gee, you can (and probably should) read a lot into that statement... :)

Odd that Mountaineer Schedule has non-ABA team and count these as wins

So looking at the Mountaineers website - was tough to find Google did not even bring this up, thanks Bing. but they have the games played against Fort Lewis?? and also NABL games?

Looks like the team just plays whoever like the Play2Win ABA team? so I guess maybe they did not play in the ABA last year.

How much you bet that they do not play in the ABA this year?

So let me understand they had half of the games canceled and going back?

Crazy that you would not be in the IBL or NABL that actually plays games for a league that has less than 50% of games played?

Ya that sounds like a solid move or maybe that is now the only league that will take them.
