After 13 days of waiting between games, Wichita State returned to action Thursday, and defeated Tulane by a score of 78-70. The win extended the Shockers’ winning streak to five games.
Despite the long layoff, the Shockers’ offense came out firing in the first half and went into halftime with a 46-33 lead. The 43 points scored by WSU were the most in a half since the first half against Newman on Dec. 30.
The second half was a different story, however, as the Green Wave battled to cut the deficit to five points with 14 minutes left in the game.
