Sophomore guard Melvion Flanagan is a walk-on from Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College. As a sophomore, he ranked twenty first on the NJCAA national scoring list.
Flanagan was averaging 3.0 minutes per game and 2.0 points a game until this evening. The Shockers beat Longwood 81-63 this at home. Flanagan scored 14 points.
He got a few offers after playing juco but ultimately decided to walk-on to Wichita State.
“That’s something that’s just like a word to me,” Flanagan said. “The walk on is cool but I mean it’s me.”
He came into Saturday’s game in the middle of the first half.
