Mountaineer Playbook Fall 2026 - Episode Two

Mountaineer Playbook is an Emmy Award-winning sports magazine show produced by sports and adventure media students at West Virginia University. This week's episode explores senior running back Cam Cook's impact on the Mountaineers' ground game after leading the nation in rushing at Jax State, and sophomore wrestler Gunner Andrick's rise from Point Pleasant's all-time wins leader to one of the top freshmen in program history. After that, we look at how WVU students are helping a West Virginia middle school affected by flooding through a sports equipment drive. Finally, we round it out with a look at the WVU Fishing and Women’s Rugby Olivia Rapacchietta’s return as an assistant coach. Watch these stories and more on Mountaineer Playbook.
