Wichita State didn't talk as if the Shockers would soon forget the lessons of Tuesday's 72-70 overtime win against Missouri Southern State at Koch Arena.

Rebound. Communicate on defense and stay with good shooters. Get the offense flowing early in the shot clock.

"We played sloppy," Wichita State center Trajata Colbert said. "We gave up a lot of offensive rebounds. We just had to play hard and play tough."

The Shockers needed a last-second basket to force overtime, where they didn't lead until 1:32 remained.
