STARKVILLE, Miss. (AP) - Arnett Moultrie had 21 points and 13
rebounds for his fourth double-double of the season and No. 21
Mississippi State pulled away from West Virginia for a 75-62
victory on Saturday night.

Dee Bost scored 17 points and Jalen Steele added 10, including a
3-pointer late in the second half that gave the Bulldogs a 67-57
lead.

Mississippi State (8-1) led throughout the first half, but a
free throw by Deniz Kilicli gave the Mountaineers a 35-34 advantage
right after halftime. The game remained close until Bost's steal
and ensuing slam put Mississippi State ahead 60-54 with 5:31
remaining.

Kevin Jones and Kilicli led West Virginia (4-2) with 14 points
each.
