A Greenbrier County native was named as the new West Virginia University Mountaineer mascot.
Troy Clemons will be the 64th Mountaineer and will serve during the 2016-’17 academic year.
According to a WVU news release, Clemons is a senior sports management major from Maxwelton and graduated from Greenbrier East High School.
WVU made the announcement during the men’s basketball game against Texas-Tech Wednesday night at the Coliseum in Morgantown.
