2018 – (#22) WSU Beat UConn in Wichita 95-74. As Wichita State senior Rashard Kelly stood with the ball in the opening minutes, the result of a second offensive rebound on the possession, a sold-out crowd rose to its feet and thundered applause. The fans appreciated the effort, and both coaches pointed to that situation and ones like it after No. 22 Wichita State cruised past UConn 95-74 on Saturday. "That set the tone, the energy you bring out on the floor," Shockers coach Gregg Marshall said. "You know, it's all rah rah in the locker room, but it's about the intensity you actually bring out on the court. Rashard did that." The Shockers (19-5, 9-3 American Athletic Conference) had 17 assists and just two turnovers while building a 55-33 halftime lead.
