Wichita State (20-6) defeated South Florida 65-55 Thursday evening to improve to 8-5 in conference play and pull into a tie with SMU for fourth place in the AAC.
For the first time in program history, the Shockers donned pink jerseys, honoring breast cancer survivors. Following the contest, WSU will be auctioning off game-worn jerseys, signed basketballs and Gregg Marshall’s tie and shoes. All proceeds from the auction will be donated to the American Cancer Society.
In the first half, the Shockers struggled to get going offensively, but still managed to outscore USF by five points through the first 20 minutes.
