After leading for a majority of the game, Wichita State women’s basketball suffered another frustrating loss on Wednesday evening.
The Shockers struggled to score in the second half in a 72-62 road loss to East Carolina University (ECU).
Wichita State dropped to 1-8 in the American Athletic Conference (AAC), maintaining its position in the conference basement, while ECU improved to 3-6.
The Shockers will rue missed free throws, turnovers and rebounds. WSU shot just 67%, 16-24 from the free-throw line, turned the ball over 20 times — tied for its third most in a game this season — and lost the offensive rebounding battle, 17-8, the most offensive rebounds allowed by WSU this year.
