  • Today in Shockers Sports History: January 24th

    For the day, the Shockers are:
    12 and 13

    Regular Season (Games of Interest):
    2017 – Beat Southern Illinois in Wichita 87-45. Markis McDuffie scored 14 of his 20 points in the first half and grabbed nine rebounds as Wichita State routed Southern Illinois 87-45 on Tuesday night to win their third straight. Darral Willis Jr. had 15 points and Shaquille Morris 10 for the Shockers (18-4, 8-1 Missouri Valley), who haven't lost at home to the Salukis since Feb. 8, 2011. Willis' layup put the Shockers up for good, 10-8, and sparked a 13-2 run capped by Rauno Nurger's 3-pointer. Zach Brown's free throw capped a 17-4 run and Wichita State led 39-22 at halftime after shooting 53.8 percent from the floor. Wichita State opened the second half with an 11-2 run for a 24-point lead and led by 42 with 2:49 left.

    2007 – Beat Drake in Wichita 82-77. Sean Ogirri scored a career-high 29 points Wednesday night to lead Wichita State past Drake 82-77. Ogirri hit five 3-pointers and had two three-point plays as the Shockers built an 18-point lead in the second half. Kyle Wilson added 14 for Wichita State (13-8, 4-6 Missouri Valley Conference) and Ryan Martin added 11. The Shockers were up by 15 with 5 minutes to go when Drake (11-10, 2-8) rallied to cut the lead to two with only a minute to go. The Shockers led 69-51 with 7:45 to go in the second half before Drake began chipping away. Still trailing by 15 with 5:03 to go, Drake rallied to cut the deficit to two at 77-75 with just over a minute left. Wichita State pulled away at the free throw line for the final margin.

      “For the day, the Shockers are:

      What? Totally unacceptable.

      In ‘28, the Hornets came to Doo-Dah riding a 10-game winning streak. They had just knocked off Phog’s bunch in Lorentz and were ready to sting ole Ross and company. In the pregame huddle, coach Johnson informed the team that male hornets were actually docile and didn’t have ‘stingers’, so we came out on fire and quickly took them behind the wood shed. They fled with broken wings, assuring they’d never mate with their Queen again.
