There was no animosity between Tulsa senior guard Corey Henderson Jr. and the team he used to play for, Wichita State, as the two programs renewed their conference rivalry in WSU’s 72-69 victory at the Reynolds Center on Saturday night.
Henderson signed with WSU in 2014 and appeared in 28 games during his freshman season, averaging 1.9 points. He decided to transfer after the 2014-15 season, playing a season at Blinn College before ending up at Tulsa.
Henderson said he left the program on good terms and feels like the split was mutually beneficial — WSU has had much success since his departure, while Henderson has carved out a successful career as a starting guard at Tulsa.
