Indiana State Takes Down Shockers

Terre Haute, Ind. - A poor second-half from the field doomed the Wichita State women's basketball team to a 63-51 defeat at Indiana State Sunday afternoon.  The Shockers shot just 26.7% (8-for-30) from the field while the Sycamores connected on 63.2% (12-for-19) of their shots from the floor after halftime. 

Wichita State led 29-27 at halftime on the strength of a solid rebounding foundation.  Indiana State scored the first six points after the break with the help of two Shannon Thomas baskets in the paint and though the Shockers tied the score twice after that, WSU never regained the lead. 

A Jessica Diamond pull-up jumper knotted the score at 42 with 10:57 to go before Indiana State reeled off a decisive 14-2 run over the next 5:22. 

Haleigh Lankster led the Shockers with 13 points but did not score after halftime.  Kelsey Jacobs recorded a career-high nine points in 21 minutes off the bench.

Three Sycamores put in double figures with Deja Mattox leading the way with 17 points.  Shannon Thomas added 15 points and Anna Munn netted 13. 

The Shockers wrap up the regular season with home games against Bradley (Thurs., March 1, 7:05 p.m.) and Northern Iowa (Sat., March 3, 2:05 p.m.) at Koch Arena.
