LAWRENCE, Kan. -- Mike Boynton is waiting for his team’s eureka moment, and he isn’t a quitter.
The familiar story of defeat repeated for the Oklahoma State men’s basketball team Saturday.
Although the Cowboys stayed close to Kansas throughout the first half, they couldn’t recover from their second-half deficit. The Jayhawks outlasted the Cowboys 84-72 in Allen Fieldhouse.
It’s a dishearteningly common situation for OSU. The Cowboys’ Big 12 losing streak stretched to six games. Since the dismissal of players Michael Weathers, Maurice Calloo and Kentrevious Jones on Jan. 16, OSU (9-14 overall, 2-8 Big 12) has defeated no conference rivals.
