He also added a career-high five steals and a pair of blocks.Quincy Ballard came up one rebound shy of his fourth straight double-double with 13 points and 9 rebounds. Justin Hill chipped in 11 points on 3-of-14 shooting.A sign of things to come on the night, USF scored the game’s first six points in the first 30 seconds, all from Jayden Reid. Reid was fouled on a three-point attempt and then turned around with a steal and three-pointer.A Ballard tip-in with 18:17 left in the half made it 8-5, and that’s as close as it would get the rest of the night.

Over the next minute, Wichita State would trim it to 10 one last time behind seven straight points on a Hill three-pointer and back-to-back scores from Harlond Beverly.But the Bulls would come right back with a knockout punch, scoring eight in a row, effectively putting the game on ice.Up Next Wichita State heads to UTSA for the first time ever on Saturday, Jan. 11, for a 3 p.m. tip on ESPN+.
