MANHATTAN, Kan.
It will be a while before anyone knows how good Kansas State’s basketball team is, but the Wildcats gave fans reason to hope during a 80-42 exhibition victory against Emporia State on Friday at Bramlage Coliseum.
K-State shredded the Division II Hornets behind 17 points from Wesley Iwundu, 13 points from Justin Edwards, 11 points from Stephen Hurt and solid contributions from newcomers.
The night was particularly encouraging for Iwundu, a junior who has never scored more than 14 points in a regular-season game. He drove to the basket with authority, making 6 of 10 shots and all four of his free-throw attempts.
