Women’s Basketball

We’ll lead off with the team with actually NCAA Tournament hopes, as the MittieCat’s dropped their Senior Night game against Texas 69-61. Karyla Middlebrook and Breanna Lewis did everything they could to keep the Wildcats in the game, but they could never overcome the 27-19 halftime hole. (AP via CBS DFW)

The lack of shooting in the game killed the ‘Cats as they made only 29% of their shots, and only 20% in the first half. (Staff Reports, KC Star)

Men’s Basketball

As he did at Illinois, Bruce Weber is failing to make the cut as Kansas State’s head coach. (Jeff Gordon, St. Louis Post-Dispatch)

Finally, Tim Fitzgerald joined Cody Tapp for Sports Night on 810 radio, and spoke some hard truths about the state of men’s basketball at Kansas State. (Cody Tapp, WHB 810)
