DAVIDSON, N.C. – Joe Ragland tallied 30 points and seven rebounds, and Wichita State shot 80 percent in the second half in a 91-74 men's basketball victory over Davidson before a sellout crowd at Belk Arena Saturday afternoon.
The Shockers (24-4) were 20-for-25 from the floor in the second half and made 12 shots in a row over a decisive 8:22 of game time. Wichita State went on a 24-7 run during the stretch to open an 84-61 lead with 4:49 to play.
Davidson used a 13-1 run to trim the margin to 13 points on a Chris Czerapowicz dunk with 2:12 to play. The Shockers worked the clock on their possession, and Demetric Williams hit a pair of free throws.
Tyler Kalinoski missed a 3-pointer on Davidson's possession, and Garrett Stutz got a layup for the Shockers to make the margin 15 points with 1:03 to go.
Jake Cohen led Davidson (20-7) with 25 points, and Czerapowicz finished with 17 points and five rebounds. Nik Cochran collected 16 points and six assists, and De'Mon Brooks scored 10.
Ragland hit all seven of his field goal attempts in the second half to score 18 of his 30 points. Touré Murry finished the game with 16 points and six assists, and Carl Hall collected 13 points and five rebounds.
The Shockers shot 64 percent for the game, compared to the Wildcats' 44 percent, and cashed in on 19 fast-break points.
Davidson returns to Southern Conference action Thursday for a contest against Elon in Belk Arena. It's the final home game of the regular season for the Wildcats, and Davidson will honor seniors AJ Atkinson, Frank Ben-Eze and Will Reigel prior to tipoff.
Game Notes: Cohen scored 20-plus for the eighth time this season and the 14th time in his career… It was the first sellout in Belk Arena since the 'Cats hosted Georgia Southern Feb. 28, 2009… It was the 'Cats' second loss in Belk Arena this season and their second loss in the last 20 games in the building… The Wildcats trailed at halftime for just the fifth time this season.
