Xavier fell to undefeated Georgia in its first game of the event by just one point, 78-77. A three-pointer with 11 seconds left gave the Bulldogs the lead and Xavier’s All Wright missed a last-second jump shot.
Tre Carroll and Jovan Milicevic led Xavier in that game with 19 points each. Carroll made it a double-double with 10 rebounds. Wright scored 17 and Filip Borovicanin had a 12-point, 12-rebound double-double. Milicevic made five three-pointers, while Wright added four.

West Virginia suffered a similar fate in its first-round game, falling at the very end to Clemson. The Tigers took the lead with 30 seconds left and led by three when Brenen Lorient opted for a wide-open dunk rather than try to tie the game with 11 seconds left.
Honor Huff led the Mountaineers with 17 points, while Jasper Floyd added 17. Chance Moore scored 16 with five rebounds, two blocks and two steals in his season debut after sitting out the first five games due to eligibility requirements.
Huff leads WVU in scoring, averaging 17.2 points per game. Lorient averaged 11.3 points and seven rebounds, while Floyd averaged 10.5 points and 4.2 assists.

WHEELING, W.Va. — Wheeling is home to West Virginia’s first recovery program designed specifically for young adults, offering a new track aimed at people ages 18 to 24 who are working to overcome substance use disorders.
Youth Services System announced it will offer the recovery track at the McCrary Center in Wheeling for young adults dealing with opioid or stimulant use disorders. The program is designed to provide recovery-focused housing and support services, giving participants a safe, structured environment as they work toward long-term recovery and stability.
“Our transitional living program has been licensed by the Department of Human Services, as well as the Office of Health Facility Licensure. We also achieved the West Virginia Alliance of Recovery Residence certification so there will be a lot of oversight in this program. And we look forward to our continued work with them,” YSS CEO Jill Eddy said.
Youth Services System received a one-time grant through the West Virginia Bureau of Behavioral Health to help expand services and launch the new track in Wheeling.
“Research shows that the longer a person is provided a safe space while in recovery, the chances of their success in recovery and remaining sober is definitely increased,” Eddy said.
Services will include substance-free and MAT-friendly housing, peer recovery support, therapy, recovery planning, and overdose prevention education. The program also supports individuals with co-occurring mental health conditions and prioritizes high-risk and underserved populations.

BUCKHANNON, W.Va (WDTV) – WestCare West Virginia cut the ribbon for its Hope in the Mountains complex on 22 N. Locust Street. The new facility will treat men with substance abuse issues with the hopes of fighting the drug epidemic in West Virginia.
Each room in the complex includes 56 beds, a television set and clean bathroom. Stephen Wright spoke ahead of the ribbon cutting along with Buckhannon officials. He said this facility differs from others on how they approach treatment.
“We really focus on the individual and the individual needs and focus on their progress in the program versus a number of days that a person is in treatment. So it’s really individualized,” said Stephen Wright, chief operating officer of WestCare Appalachia. “So we still need aftercare, outpatient counseling, and those things. But this really gives an opportunity for an intervention to break that cycle for individuals struggling with addiction. Because lots of times they must be separated from the living circumstances that they’re in at that time.”
