Southwell sizzles
Shane Southwell is one of K-State’s best three-point shooters, but he made outside shots better than he has all season against Baylor.
The junior guard scored all 18 of his points off three-pointers, going 6 of 9 from behind the arc. Wildcat coach Bruce Weber said that opened the game, and hurt Baylor’s zone defense.
Lawrence delivers
Omari Lawrence took one shot in eight minutes of action, but Weber singled him out after the game as one of the Wildcats’ top contributors off the bench. He helped on both ends, and made his only shot, a driving layup through a foul. He then made the free throw for a traditional three-point play.
Worth noting
K-State’s next game against West Virginia might not be the most exciting Big Monday game on the schedule, but it will be interesting to see former K-State coach Bob Huggins return to Bramlage Coliseum for the first time … To celebrate the 150th anniversary of K-State becoming a university, the Wildcats’ cheerleaders and mascot wore special shirts and sang “Happy Birthday” at halftime … Former K-State safety Tysyn Hartman, who plays for the Kansas City Chiefs, watched the game from a courtside seat.
