16 | at UCF * Feb. 10, 2021 | Orlando, Fla. / Addition Financial Arena Wichita State...... 36 25 - 61 UCF...... 30 30 - 60 » WSU survived a barrage from UCF’s Darius Perry, who scored a game-high 27 points, including two baskets in the last 17 seconds, but missed a would-be game-win- ner ahead of the final buzzer. » Alterique Gilbert (17 points) hit a three-pointer with 33 seconds left and both ends of a 1-and-1 to position the Shockers for the win with 13 seconds remaining. » Instead, WSU made two critical mistakes, fouling Perry on a driving layup that became a three-point play with less than 10 seconds to go. The Shockers turned it over against UCF’s full-court pressure, giving the Knights the ball with 7.8 seconds to play. Perry missed a hanging jumper in the lane, and Gilbert pounced on the loose ball as time expired. » Gilbert was 6-of-10 from the field, including 3-of-4 from three-point range. » Dexter Dennis scored 14 of his with 16 points before halftime and secured 10 rebounds. » Morris Udeze added 12 points on 5-of-7 shooting. » WSU led by as many as 10 points late in the first half and took a 36-30 edge into the locker room. UCF rallied to tie the game near the 10:00-mark and neither side led by more than four the rest of the way. » WSU outscored UCF 16-8 at the foul line. » WSU swept the season series and is now 7-0 all-time against UCF.
