Shocker Brew 1/22: Hoopin' in Memphis

Wichita State MBB heads out on the road for two straight, beginning with a trip to #24 Memphis Thursday night.

Good morning, Shocker Nation! The Wichita State MBB team heads out on the road for two straight, beginning with a trip to #24 Memphis Thursday night. The Shockers look to snap a bit of a skid here, as the squad has dropped three of its first four American Conference games following a 75-72 buzzer beating loss to ECU on Saturday.

Corey Washington logged his 4th double-double of the season in the loss to ECU, finishing with 19 points and a career-high 18 rebounds. His 18 rebounds were the most by a Shocker since Troy Mack had 22 vs. SW Missouri State on Jan. 18, 1999.

What else are we mixing into todayโ€™s edition of the Shocker Brew?
