TULSA, Okla. –– Elijah Joiner took the inbounds pass and sank a 3-point shot from 25-feet out that swished through the net for a 54-51 Tulsa victory Saturday night over the 23rd-ranked Wichita State Shockers in front of 8,089 fans at the Donald W. Reynolds Center.

Tulsa forced a shot clock violation by the Shockers with 0:03 remaining, thus giving the Hurricane one last chance in regulation to break the tie. Joiner took the inbounds pass from Brandon Rachal near the top of the key, and with one 10th of a second left on the game clock Joiner launched the game-winner.
