Wichita State freshman Tyson Etienne dribbles past a defender during the first half of the game against Houston on Saturday inside Charles Koch Arena.
Multiple times throughout this season so far, WSU has failed to respond to size and strength from opposing teams, and Saturday’s contest against Houston was no different. The Cougars came prepared and dominated the lane.
Houston made it their goal to not allow anything easy for WSU’s offense in the paint. The plan worked out to perfection. With their size and athleticism, Houston was able to block nine shots while the Shockers went on to shoot 10-31 on two-pointers in the game.
