It's been a decade since the Wichita State men's basketball team last won a Sweet 16 game in the NCAA basketball tournament.
Ten years ago on this night, the Shockers defeated La Salle 72-58 in Los Angeles, advancing to the Elite Eight for the first time in 32 years.
Guard Malcom Armstead led WSU with 18 points and a half-dozen rebounds; Carl Hall added 16 points and eight rebounds, while freshman Ron Baker had 13 points.
This could have been a matchup between Wichita State and Kansas State, but K-State lost in the second round to La Salle the previous weekend.
