Mountaineer Maniacs cheer at the 2008 WVU-Auburn gameThe Mountaineer athletic tradition is legendary—and you can be part of it!

Whether it’s the excitement of more than 60,000 fans united in their love for our football team, or a basketball legacy that includes Jerry West (his outline is on the NBA logo), there’s nothing like being a Mountaineer.

  • The Mountaineers won the 2008 Meineke Car Care Bowl and have appeared in 28 postseason bowls.
  • The coed rifle team won the 2009 NCAA Championship, WVU's 14th national title in rifle.
  • ESPN The Magazine ranked WVU’s student section as the third-most-spirited student section in the nation.
  • Morgantown was ranked No. 25 in Sporting News’ 2008 Best Sports Cities rankings.

Consider joining the Mountaineer Maniacs student group and experience the thrill of cheering on the Mountaineers with thousands of your fellow students.
