Reflecting on one of the most up-and-down seasons in his 12-year tenure, Gregg Marshall made sure to give the Wichita State fan base some credit for sticking with the Shockers.
WSU lost its home opener for the first time since 2001, didn’t win a road game until February and started American Athletic Conference play 1-6.
All of those things are distant memories now, as the Shockers are now one win away from heading to Madison Square Garden to play in the final four of the National Invitation Tournament following their 63-55 win at Clemson on Sunday. WSU is 13-3 in its last 16 games and now the Shockers (21-14) will play at Indiana on Tuesday in the NIT quarterfinals.
