K-STATE RETURNS HOME TO FACE WEST VIRGINIA MONDAY
- Kansas State (13-11, 5-7 Big 12) concludes a stretch of 3 games in 6 days by hosting West Virginia (14-10, 3-8 Big 12) on Monday night at 6 p.m., CT on ESPN2. The Mountaineers have won 4 straight in the series and will be looking to sweep the season series after rallying from a 17-point first-half deficit to win 71-68 at home on Jan. 8.
- K-State will look like a much different team than the one that last met West Virginia on Jan. 8, as the Wildcats played without head coach Bruce Weber and 6 players due to COVID-19 health and safety protocols. The team still battled short-handed, hitting on a season-high 13 3-pointers and nearly sending the game into overtime on the last possession.
- K-State has won 3 of its last 4 games, including back-to-back wins (Oklahoma State and TCU) in Big 12 play for the second time this season. After starting in a 0-4 hole, the Wildcats have won 5 of their last 8 vs. league competition.
