Gibson’s walk-off homer lifts Shockers over Kansas

The sun sets behind Eck Stadium on March 9, 2018 during the WSU versus UTA game.

Hunter Gibson hit a walk-off home run to lift Wichita State over the Kansas Jayhawks in 13 innings Wednesday night.

Wichita State won the game 3-2. It was the first of a home-and-home series the Shockers will have with the Jayhawks this season.

“I was really focused on getting up there and getting a base hit,” Gibson said. “I was thinking middle-in, something I could drive in the gap and get a double on. It ended up working out for me.
