Before West Virginia upset No. 4 Baylor, 76-64, on Saturday in Morgantown, there was another surprise on the court during the Senior Day introductions.
Senior guard Chase Harler got down on one knee and proposed to his girlfriend, Lindsey Baker, in front of the home crowd. The two have been together since eighth grade, a detail the game’s announcer also shared with everyone during his proposal.
That same announcer, however, got a little ahead of himself and spoiled the surprise by saying that Harler was, in addition to his parents, also accompanied by his future fiancé. That prediction, of course, came true when she said yes, and the two shared a hug and a kiss before tipoff.
