Oops

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) -- West Virginia may have won the National Invitation Tournament, but the Mountaineers' commemorative T-shirts are less than championship material.

They contain a misspelling.

The "West Virginia" printed on the shirts players wore after winning the NIT title with a 78-73 victory over Clemson on Thursday night is missing the last "i" in "Virginia."

WVU sports information director Shelly Poe said the NIT printed the shirts.

Calls to tournament officials were not immediately returned Friday.

Now here's a proofreader's nightmare. I've had embarrassing typos, as most writers have, but nothing as major as this, thank the gods.

    *sigh* In the end, it doesn't matter. Nobody knows we're a State anyway...

    Perhaps if we would have gone with the original plan, the one to use a name which didn't include another State...
