A Mon Valley native is making waves in Morgantown. Tre Mitchell, a former Elizabeth Forward student, is in his first year playing basketball for the West Virginia Mountaineers. As the college basketball season has just started, Mitchell is playing a big role on his new team.

Through the first four games, Mitchell is averaging 13.3 points per game and has made eight 3-pointers. In a 75-57 win against Morehead State, Mitchell led the Mountaineers with 21 points. He also leads the team with 17 defensive rebounds on the season.

“I think you’re seeing why we were excited about getting him,” WVU hall of fame head coach Bob Huggins said after the Morehead State game.

After attending Elizabeth Forward for two years, he went to Woodstock Academy in Connecticut where he would be named the Gatorade High School Player of the Year in 2019. After high school, Mitchell played at the University of Massachusetts for two seasons before transferring to Texas.

He averaged 8.4 points per game with the Longhorns and then transferred to play closer to his original home. Now just an hour away from the Mon Valley, he is living out his childhood dreams. He grew up going to see games played at the WVU Coliseum in Morgantown and the Petersen Events Center on the University of Pittsburgh campus.
