Davide Moretti’s career-high 25 points and hot shooting as a team helped Texas Tech upset No.12 West Virginia 89-81 Wednesday night in Lubbock, Texas. West Virginia didn’t score a field goal for the final 3:53 of the game. Derek Culver led the Mountaineers (16-4, 4-3 Big 12) with 16 points, one of five West Virginia players to score in double figures. A 3 from Moretti, then a nifty scoop layup with some backspin while being fouled, gave Texas Tech a 62-48 lead at the 13:28 mark. Moretti’s corner 3 put Texas Tech in front 78-69 with 7:15 left, and West Virginia got only as close as 86-80 the rest of the way.
