Carr leads No. 17 Texas past short-handed WVirginia 74-59

Associated Press  

AUSTIN, Texas — Marcus Carr spent the nonconference portion of his first season at Texas becoming comfortable in coach Chris Beard’s offense, trying to be a good teammate and working to create shots for others. 17 Texas defeated short-handed West Virginia 74-59 in the teams’ Big 12 opener, snapping the Mountaineers’ eight-game winning streak. Texas led by 28 points with 13 minutes remaining, but West Virginia used improved shooting and dogged defense to make the game more competitive. “We’re a much better team when we have Taz,” West Virginia coach Bob Huggins said. “Hard to understand.” BIG PICTURE West Virginia: The Mountaineers could not overcome the loss of Sherman, who ranks second in the Big 12 and 13th nationally in scoring.
