IN THE
SPOTLIGHT
Choosing to become a Mountaineer student-athlete is
special. Without a professional sports team in the state,
folks across the state and throughout the region love West
Virginia athletes.
Mountaineers have the unique opportunity to represent
themselves, their teammates and their university to news,
media, alumni, friends, family and the general public. Your
interaction with these groups is also part of your educational
process.
If you take advantage of these opportunities, it can have a
positive effect, not only on your career as a student-athlete
at West Virginia, but also on your life after you have donned
the Old Gold and Blue.
