Playing in front of a sell-out crowd of 11,010 fans, (12/15) K-State honored its seven seniors before, during and after Saturday’s game against Kansas, as the Wildcats secured a 90-60 win over its Dillon Sunflower Showdown rival at Bramlage Coliseum. The Wildcats have won six straight and 10 of the last 11 meetings in the series in Manhattan.

K-State (25-4, 13-3 Big 12) secured its 51st win in the last two seasons. The 51 victories in the last two seasons are tied for the fourth-most over a two season span and the most since the 2002-03 and 2003-04 seasons (54).

With its 13 wins in Big 12 play this season, K-State has recorded consecutive seasons with 13 or more league victories for the second time in program history and the first time since the 2002-03 and 2003-04 seasons.

The Wildcats extended its home court winning streak to 17 games. This is tied for the fifth-longest home win streak in program history and tied for the second-longest in Bramlage Coliseum. The 17 straight home wins are tied for the longest home court win streak in the Jeff Mittie era. The 33 home wins over the last two seasons are the most wins in Bramlage over a two-season span in program history.

K-State paid tribute to its senior class of Brylee Glenn, Jaelyn Glenn, Ayoka Lee, Temira Poindexter, Gisela Sanchez, Serena Sundell and Kennedy Taylor in a pregame ceremony and a postgame ceremony. Poindexter led the senior class with 14 points, three rebounds and two assists.

Sanchez and Taylor came off the bench to register 12 and 10 points, respectively, while Taylor led the Wildcats with seven rebounds.

All-America candidate Serena Sundell narrowly missed her eighth double-double of the season as she tallied a school record and a career-high 15 assists while adding nine points, five rebounds and three steals. Sundell’s 15 assists were the third-most in a game nationally this season and the most by a Big 12 player since the 2021-22 season.

Sophomore Taryn Sides led the Wildcats in scoring with 15 points including a 5-of-9 effort from long range, while also dishing out six assists and pulling in five rebounds.
