West Virginia Secures Commitment from Troy Transfer Forward Jackson Fields
Sunday morning, West Virginia scooped up another commitment in the transfer portal with former Troy forward Jackson Fields announcing his pledge to the program.
Fields saw incremental success during his three seasons with the Trojans, and put up career highs in points (7.6) and rebounds (4.8) per game. In 95 career games (60 starts), Fields has averaged six points, 3.9 rebounds, 0.7 steals, 0.7 blocks, and 0.6 assists per contest while shooting 47.5% from the floor and 32.4% from three-point range.
Coming out of Elkins High School in Missouri City, Texas, Fields held offers from Air Force, Army, Houston Christian, Nevada, Texas Southern, UTSA, Wyoming, and a few others.
Fields will have one year of eligibility remaining. He becomes the fourth transfer commit so far for Ross Hodge and WVU, joining Honor Huff (Chattanooga), Brenen Lorient (North Texas), and Harlan Obioha (UNC Wilmington).

PHILIPPI, W.Va (WDTV) – The West Virginia Mountain Bike Association kicked off its cross country series Sunday with the Race to Lil Moe’s in Philippi.
The event had options for all skill levels. Bikers had the choice to race 6 miles, 14 miles, or 19 miles.
Each race had a mix of straight track biking, and twisting and climbing through the woods. Bikers of all ages could participate, and each age group had its own race and results.
“I really do think that trails build community, and if you can get outdoor activity where people can come out and hike and bike,” said George Finly, a mountain biker and trail volunteer. “This is as much as a hiking trail as it is a biking trail. It’s right along the river, which is beautiful. Eagles were flying back and forth yesterday, and today is great because we’ve got a lot of kids out here.”
The next WVMBA cross country mountain bike race will be April 19 in Buckhannon.
