La Salle stuns Kansas State in NCAA Tournament
KANSAS CITY, Mo.,[url=http://www.ksacinc.com/cheapbeats/?]beats by dre outlet[/url], March 22 () -- Jerrell Wright scored 21 points and La Salle ousted fourth-seeded Kansas State 63-61 in the NCAA Tournament, despite giving up a huge halftime lead.La Salle was up by 18 at the half but Kansas State come back with a strong second half to take the lead. The Wildcats never pulled away from La Salle, which was able to edge back ahead with free throws despite failing to connect on a field goal in the final 8 minutes of the game.The 13th-seeded Explorers (23-9), who had to win a First Four game Wednesday just to get to the Kansas State game, will play 12th-seeded Mississippi Sunday, which advanced on an upset of its own. The Rebels beat fifth-seeded Wisconsin 57-46.With Mississippi and La Salle meeting in the third round, the West Region will have at least one double-digit seeded team in the Round of 16.Wright had 10 points in the first half as the Explorers grabbed a 44-26 lead by halftime. Kansas State, however, with Jordan Henriquez providing the firepower,[url=http://www.tymarc.com/]christian louboutin outlet[/url], pulled ahead with La Salle at 57-56 with 7:05 to go.Even though La Salle didn't have a field goal the rest of the way, Kansas State managed just one and Wright made seven free throws for the winning margin.The Wildcats had a final chance to tie -- and a timeout to use to set up the play -- but didn't call the timeout and Angel Rodriguez missed a shot from a crowd.Wright's 21 points came on 6-of-6 shooting from the field and 9-of-10 from the free-throw line.Henriquez and Shane Southwell each had 17 points for Kansas State.
