The WVU Cricket team.  

Just over a week ago, the WVU Club Cricket team defeated the NJIT Highlanders to win the 2019 American College Cricket National Championship. This championship is the biggest achievement a university cricket team can earn in the United States. The Mountaineers returned from the tournament in Lauderhill, Florida with decisive victories over the University of Maryland, Northeastern University, University of Alabama Huntsville and Virginia Tech.
