Men's basketball to hold end-of-year celebration

Wichita State men's basketball will hold its annual end of the year celebration on Thursday, April 14, inside Charles Koch Arena. Fans are encouraged to attend this free event. Gates will open at 6 p.m., and festivities begin at 7 p.m. Outgoing seniors Ron Baker, Anton Grady, Fred VanVleet, Tom "Bush" Wamukota and Evan Wessel will have one last opportunity to address fans.

The 2015-16 season highlight video will capture some of the high points in a season full of them. The Shockers won their third-consecutive Missouri Valley Conference title, set a league record with a seventh-straight 25-win season, and continued their NCAA Tournament success with two more postseason victories.

Head coach Gregg Marshall and staff will present team awards, including:

Wichita Eagle Most Valuable Player Award
Shelley Cox/KAKE-TV Leadership Award
Ralph Miller Captain's Awards
Shocker Radio Most Outstanding Defensive Player Award
Warren Armstrong Jabali Assists Award
Cleo Littleton Most Improved Player Award
Shafer Dart Most Inspirational Player Award
Xavier McDaniel Rebounding Award
