Wichita State men’s basketball fell to Missouri, 72-62, on Sunday at the game in Charles Koch Arena. With the loss, the Shockers fall to 1-1 on the season.
Mizzou quickly jumped out to a double-digit lead in the first half after a 10-0 run. After struggling out of the gates, WSU responded late and only trailed by four points at the half.
Junior combo-guard Dexter Dennis said that getting off to that rough start was very frustrating.
“No team wants to start out being down double digits in a matter of minutes so it just makes the game a lot harder because you’re trying to fight back for so long,” Dennis said.
