Your Cincinnati Bearcats ended a two-game skid last night. Wes Miller’s guys defeated the Wichita State Shockers 85-76 at Fifth Third Arena. The win improved Cincinnati’s overall mark to 17-9 overall and 7-6 in the American.
The Bearcats looked great from the opening tip, blowing the game wide open in the early going. Cincinnati led by as much as 21 in the first half, holding a decisive 32-11 lead midway through the first 20 minutes. It seemed like Cincinnati could not miss a shot. Until they did.
But the Bearcats, who have shown lots of trouble of late defending the rim, let Wichita State get back into this one.
