Poor second quarter dooms women’s basketball to loss against Missouri State

Senior forward Ornella Niankan attempts a contested layup in the second quarter against Missouri State. The Shockers lost, 82-77.

It was a tale of two halves offensively for Wichita State women’s basketball against Missouri State University (MSU).

The Shockers came alive in the second half on Wednesday night, but a 13-point halftime deficit after scoring nine total points in the second quarter was too much to overcome. Wichita State lost, 82-77, in Charles Koch Arena.

“I think this was a total of three, what we felt like is our normal game quarters, and then our second quarter really just doomed us in all aspects of the game,” Wichita State head coach Terry Nooner said.
