There's a catch to playing the zone against WV too.  They can shoot the
lights out beyond the arc.  UC hasn't exactly been playing solid perimeter
defense (even in man-to-man) lately.  I would suggest some kind of matchup
zone that keeps Hicks down low, and McGowen or White can cover Pittsnogle
outside.  Everyone else should stick to their man.
