Porter Earns Third American Honor Roll Appearance
Wichita State's Craig Porter Jr. snatched victory from the jaws of defeat, as well as a spot on this week's American Athletic Conference Honor Roll.
The senior from Terre Haute, Ind. scored 21 points and made crucial plays down the stretch in Sunday's 91-89 double-overtime win against SMU.
WSU trailed by five points with less than a minute to play in regulation when Porter stole an inbound pass and nailed a three-pointer. After a defensive stop, he stuck a game-tying lineup with two seconds on the clock to force overtime. Porter added six more points to his total in the second overtime period to help the Shockers pull away.
