Win No. 35 featured Wichita State knocking out 13 hits, yet striking out 11 times, while scoring eight runs and feeling it appropriate to credit the opposing pitcher for a job well done.

The Shockers defeated Houston 8-7 in 11 innings at Wilkins Stadium, a 3-hour, 57-minute game that expanded the definition of pitchers duel before the hitters decided things. For the 20th-ranked Shockers, put it in the category of getting the best shot from an underdog and responding to win their 11th straight game.
