Scouting Wichita State
The Shockers snapped a two-game skid last time out with a home win over Tulane. The team has had an up-and-down run of it in conference play which sees them holding a 4-7 record in AAC play to this point.

Wichita State is led by the tremendous tandem of Jane Asinde and Trajata Colbert with 12.3 points and 11.0 rebounds and 12.0 points and 7.7 rebounds per game respectively. In the last matchup with ECU, the duo was two points for Asinde away from both having double-doubles.
