If Wichita State beats Indiana in the NCAA Tournament on Friday, Intrust Bank Arena will host a watch party for the Shockers’ next game in the tourney on Sunday – which could possibly be against Kansas.

The arena will show the game on its center-hanging LED high-res videoboard, and its bars and lounges will be open, with televisions in those spots also tuned into the game. Admission and parking will be free for the party; food and beverages will be for sale at select concession stands in the arena.

Game time has not been announced yet, but the arena will open an hour before tip-off if WSU is playing.

The Shockers will face Indiana in their first game of the tourney at about 1:45 p.m. Friday in Omaha. The Jayhawks will play New Mexico State at 11:15 that morning, also in Omaha.

The winners of those two games will meet each other Sunday.
