Shockers Stunned by Alcorn State
Cold outside shooting doomed Wichita State in a 66-57 loss to Alcorn State on Saturday afternoon.
The Shockers (1-1) made threes on each of their first two possessions but hit just two more the rest of the day en route to a rare November setback on their home floor. They're 50-3 in the 20 seasons since Charles Koch Arena's renovation.
WSU converted 18 of its 30 shots inside the arc but just 4-of-24 from beyond it to finish at just over 40 percent overall.
Kenny Pohto (13 points) and Jaykwon Walton (12) paced the Shockers offensively, while Craig Porter Jr. finished just shy of a double-double with nine points and nine rebounds.
