(St. Louis, MO) – Wichita State’s entire back court is being ‘watched’ by the United States Basketball Writers Association. Seniors Fred VanVleet and Ron Baker have both been named to the USBWA’s ‘Oscar Robertson Trophy’ (national player of the year) watch list.
The Shocker guards are two of 33 players on the list. With two players on the watch list, Wichita State trails only Kentucky and Kansas who each have three.
VanVleet has missed most of the Shockers’ first six games and Baker is averaging 18 points per game.

Three more road wins so far in @ValleyHoops as @BradleyUMBB @BelmontMBB & @UIC_MBB capture road wins. Looks like @DrakeBulldogsMB will do so too. #FatherHarry
Well @RacersWBB followed the men's example and swept Iowa in the @ValleyHoops race! Racers are 6-1 & if @BelmontWBB holds on to their Iowa sweep, the Bruins and Racers will be tied for first. What a trip for those two teams! #FatherHarry
After today's action, @EIUWBB is 8-0 in @OVCSports play. 4 teams @usiwbb @TTUWBB @LRTrojans @LindenwoodWBB are tied at 6-2. Six other teams are under .500. Great race to the finish lies ahead. #FatherHarry
Really entertaining game between @BelmontMBB & @UEAthletics_MBB. Under four minutes left in a one point game. Gabriel Pozzato back in the Aces' lineup. Rogers is playing like I've expected. Triples are dropping. It's fun and @kylejpeach bringing it on #ThePlus #FatherHarry
