The host Hurricanes twice closed within two points in the second half (at the 14:35-mark and again with 28 seconds to play) but never led. » Both sides missed key free throws down the stretch. WSU finished 9-of-17 compared to 11-of-21 for TU. » Eight different Shockers made a three-pointer in a 10- of-26 effort. WSU turned it over just nine times and won the rebounding battle, 42-37. » Tulsa shot 41.8% from the field but connected on only 8-of-31 three-point tries (.258). » WSU won for the sixth time in seventh AAC era meet- ings and avenged last year’s buzzer-beater loss.
