RH: Shockers Take Over Early to Rout Rice

By Paul Suellentrop

Some junior-college transfers to try to do too much early in their careers, especially on the offensive end. The game often doesn't open up for scorers as easily as it does in junior college and that adjustment to hard-earned baskets can take time.

Wichita State junior Ricky Torres, an NJCAA All-American last season at Missouri State-West Plains, is earning his minutes by fitting in and serving as a connecting piece between scorers. He handed out five assists in Sunday's 90-61 win over Rice and has 10 assists and no turnovers in the past two games.
