Dennis’ defensive effort continues, despite offensive struggles

From the moment Dexter Dennis stepped on Wichita State’s campus, he knew that defense would get him playing time. Now in his fourth year with the Shockers, that’s the main reason Dennis is on the court when it matters the most.

Dennis is averaging a career-low 8.4 points per game but his defense is at an all-time high. During Saturday’s win against SMU, Dennis limited SMU’s Kendric Davis to a season-low eight points on 1-7 shooting.

His coaches and teammates said they know how important Dennis’ defense is to winning games and his work hasn’t gone unnoticed.
