2018 – (#11) WSU Won at UCF in Orlando, Fla. 75-71 (OT). Wichita State says it wasn't looking past the University of Central Florida, but it did take a while for the 11th-ranked Shockers to get serious about things, beating the Knights 75-71 in overtime on Thursday night. Shaquille Morris scored 19 points and Conner Frankamp added 16 for Wichita State. Landry Shamet scored 14 points and had six assists for the Shockers (24-5, 14-3 American Athletic Conference), who have won seven-straight. "We had some dull moments tonight, but (UCF) really came out and played well," Frankamp said. "We buckled down in overtime and made the stops we had to win the game. Now, I can't wait for Sunday. That's going to be one of the craziest atmospheres ever. Everyone is super excited about it." Darral Willis nailed a fallaway jumper with 37 seconds left in overtime that gave Wichita State a 72-69 lead. The Shockers made three of four free throws in the final 19 seconds to keep UCF at bay.
2014 – (#2) WSU Beat Missouri State in Wichita 68-45. The chant started when Ron Baker walked toward the Wichita State bench for the final time, and reached a crescendo when he popped the front of his jersey -- No. 31. As in, 31-0. A perfect regular season. "Undefeated!" the sellout crowd roared in unison. "Undefeated!" Ron Baker finished with 13 points, Cleanthony Early led the way with 19 and the second-ranked Shockers rolled to a 68-45 victory over Missouri State on Saturday, becoming the first team since Saint Joseph's in 2004 to enter its conference tournament unbeaten. "My teammates told me a couple weeks ago that my number was something special, because that's how many games we could potentially win," Baker said. "I didn't put that together myself, but it's very special. It's going to be something I look back on forever."
