(St. Louis, MO) – Wichita State begins the basketball season right where it left off last season, in the upper levels
of the national rankings! The Shockers begin the season ranked 16th in the USA Today Sports Coaches’ Poll. Gregg Marshall’s team finished the season last year in the Final Four.
Kentucky begins the season at number one. While the Shockers are the only Missouri Valley Conference team in the top 25, there is also only one team from the ‘new and improved’ Big East Conference and it is NOT former Valley member Creighton. It is Marquette who comes in one spot behind Wichita State.
Creighton and St. Louis University are teams listed as ‘on the cusp’ by USA Today.

Flooding, lightning strikes, etc. have cost @RacersHoops two home games. Had to play 'neutral site' tonight instead of at home and Wednesday's goes from home to away. Tough break for the Racers, and the whole area has been hit with difficulties. #FatherHarry
Murray State's scheduled home game Wednesday vs. Southern Illinois being moved to Banterra Center in Carbondale. #ValleyHoops
Gigantic game for @BradleyUMBB today in Des Moines. If they have a chance to catch @DrakeBulldogsMB, they have to win today. The Bulldogs can basically win the title today. @BustingBrackets breaks it all down. #FatherHarry https://bit.ly/3EGiVgi
Not rooting for any particular @ValleyHoops, but chaos is always fun. If things break certain ways, after today there could be a six-way tie for fifth place.
Fun to listen to @MLBLarry on the @SIU_Basketball/@BelmontMBB game tonight. Good job brother. #FatherHarry
