The K-State basketball team beat Oklahoma State last night on a last-second three-point shot by Nijel Pack. The game went back and forth all night, and either team could have won it. It was hard to get worked up about this one, as I find myself numb watching Wildcat basketball nowadays. When Pack hit the three-pointer at the end of the game, I thought, “that’s nice. Good for him and the team.” Then I shut off the television and went…
“To the best fans in the nation, thank you.”…Skylar Thompson, 1/27/2022 JM: With that, Skylar Thompson bid adieu to the K-State family.

K-State women’s basketball has been bad to mediocre to pretty good over the years but has never been much more than that on the national stage. That is until now. This year’s team has piqued my interest not only because they are…
K-State’s Ayoka Lee set the NCAA women’s basketball record for points in a game, scoring 61 in a victory over number 14 Oklahoma on Sunday afternoon in Bramlage Coliseum. Here is the record-breaking basket as well as the ovation from the K-State crowd when she was pulled out of the game….
