Wesley Iwundu took the floor as a starter for Kansas State in the NCAA Tournament in 2014, and after a tough loss in a physical game against Kentucky, he believed there would be more postseasons in his future.
“For sure,” Iwundu said. “We had high expectations after my freshmen year.”
But a season soaked in controversy, ending with the dismissal of players, soured Iwundu’s sophomore season, and although last year’s team was free of those problems, success didn’t follow.
Iwundu has a final opportunity to return to the NCAA Tournament, and the chances of that occurring will ride largely on his ability to push himself through another year of improvement.
