Wichita State bench players celebrate a 3-pointer in the second half against Emporia State. The Shockers shot 40% from the 3-point line on Oct. 27.

If Wichita State’s men’s basketball team plays anything like what they showed during the Sunday night exhibition against Emporia State University, year two of the head coach Paul Mills era will be significantly more successful than year one.

The Shockers never trailed against the Hornets, winning a blowout, 99-53. The scoreline represents an improvement over last year’s preseason game, a 74-53 victory against Rogers State.
