Wichita State sees their seventh-straight NCAA Tournament on Friday in San Diego. After years of feeling like they were cheated on seeding, Head Coach Gregg Marshall was pleased with receiving the four seed.
“I thought we were going to be a five or a four. Right on the border of a five and four, teetering towards a five,” Marshall said. “We had a lot of wins in those first two quadrants, because we had the opportunity to play good teams.”
Wichita State has a leg up on their Big Dance opponents—nine of the 10 players who saw playing time in March Madness games last season have returned.
