"Who invented the word Mountaineer?
Mountaineer (noun) one who lives in the high country; a climber of mountains. First coined by my favorite historical author, William Shakespeare, in Cymbeline, which he wrote in 1610."
Now Appalachian State Mountaineer (the real one) started around 1907. The football Mountaineer started in the 1930's or so. Right Apps?

Sorry my friends ---
When did WVU become the Mountaineers? The Mountaineer was adopted in 1890 as the official school mascot

WVU elevation is 1,161 ft. HillTopper seems more appropriate.

Re: Mountaineer Trivia Based on You Boys' Google
Speaking of WVA Mountaineers, I have noticed we are and have engaged this group of Hilltoppers twice this season. WBB played them last month at their place and BB has a two game series against them in March in Boone.
Could football be next?

Re: Mountaineer Trivia Based on You Boys' Google
The baseball series with them should be a blast. I wouldn't mind a football home and home with them. Their tailgate scene is pretty dang fun.appstate77 wrote: ↑Mon Jan 16, 2023 12:38 pmSpeaking of WVA Mountaineers, I have noticed we are and have engaged this group of Hilltoppers twice this season.
