PSA: We are not dead. The site, however, is flopping around like a catfish on the grass.

Hopefully it'll be fixed soon.

In the space of six days this November, K-State will be playing Mississippi State and either Nebraska or New Mexico in Kansas City, and Indiana in Bloomington

K-State has previously had women qualify individually for the national championship, and today Carla Bernat WON the Lexington Regional.

Turns out she'd be going anyway, though, because...

...for the first time in school history the TEAM has qualified for nationals, finishing third at Lexington.

Kansas State 2025 NFL Draftees: Parrish, Giddens, Sigle (and Howard!) - Bring On The Cats Amidst three days of Prime Time Hilarity, the Cats leave a mark.

All three potential Wildcat draftees are off the board now.

Of course, surprises could happen, but any further K-State paydays are probably coming post-draft.

And because most of us still care:

With the ninth pick in the sixth round (185 overall), Will Howard goes to Pittsburgh.

With the 14th pick in the 5th round, 141st overall, the Indianapolis Colts selected K-State running back DJ Giddens.

Nine picks later, San Francisco drafted safety Marques Sigle.

K-State is leading the Big 12 in donations so far in this year's #Charitibundi Bowl, but that's no excuse to step off the gas.

Michigan's at $54K, after all!

It is so weird to me that the vagaries of time and injury have left us with Serena Sundell ON this list and Ayoka Lee NOT.

This was one of the most stacked four-year rosters in school history, and It hurts that this team never made it past the Sweet Sixteen. 54 wins over the last two years.

Ah, well.

(5) K-State falls 67-61 to (1) USC in the Sweet Sixteen, bringing an end to the season and Ayoka Lee's Wildcat career.

Lee went out with a double-double (12 pts 10 reb), and Selena Sundell had 22 along with 10 from Jaelyn Glenn, but it wasn't enough.

Final: Baylor 70, K-State 56 - Bring On The Cats Most likely, this is the "final" final of a disappointing season.

And so, after months of drifting aimlessly, the dirigible crashed to earth.

Final: K-State 71, Arizona State 66 - Bring On The Cats The Cats shot well early, then hung on against a shorthanded Sun Devil squad.

Okay, so I'm really late here, but Luke wasn't.

Baylor tomorrow.

Coleman Hawkins as conf 3rd Team, while David N'Guessan gets HM, is horseshit.

DNG led the team in PPG, PPM, RPG, RPM.

DNG led the *conference* in FG%, and was top-10 in RPG.

DNG had a better FT% than Hawkins. FREE THROWS!

Hawkins shot the 3 only 2.5% better.

*Swap them.*

K-State up 12-1 over William & Mary after 3.

Max Martin, batting cleanup, jacked a granny in the first and then a 3-run HR in the 2nd. He got an 8th RBI in the 3rd on a bases loaded walk.

Final: No. 10 Iowa State 73, K-State 57 - Bring On The Cats The Cats lost by 16. It felt worse than that.

And yet another listless regular season lurches to a close.

An unfortunate Senior Day send-off for David N’Guessan. He was rarely the best player on the floor before this season, and he played his ass off this year.

Tallied 19 and 7 in his last game in MHK, going 8-10 from the field.

K-State falls to the Cyclones on Senior Day, 73-57. David N'Guessan had 19 in his Bramlage finale; Dug McDaniel added 14.

Cats finish the regular season 15-16 (9-11), and will be the 11 seed if Utah wins today, the 10 if Utah loses and WVU wins, or the 9 if both lose.

Serena Sundell poured in 21 as #20 K-State won the game they shouldn't even have had to play in an 80-65 cruise past 13th-seeded UCF. Zyanna Walker added 13 and Jaelyn Glenn 11.

Tomorrow morning at 11, the Cats take on #16 West Virginia, the 4 seed.

Final: K-State 54, Cincinnati 49 - Bring On The Cats K-State won ugly. Which is fine. If only they could have done it more often.

With tonight's win, a win on Saturday combined with a KU loss to Arizona could somehow vault K-State all the way to the 7 seed in the Big 12 tournament.

Go figure.

Anyway, Luke's recap:

06.03.2025 03:53 β€” πŸ‘ 6    πŸ” 1    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

The men, on the other hand, scored a 65-56 win over Colorado at Bramlage. David N'Guessan had 21 points, while Brendan Hausen and Dug McDaniel added 11 and 10 respectively.

K-State (14-15, 8-10) is at Cincinnati on Wednesday night.

02.03.2025 23:25 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

The loss appears to cost K-State (25-6, 13-5) the double bye, as they finish in a 3-way tie for fourth place with West Virginia and Utah; the Mountaineers beat both. The would mean an 11am game next Thursday against the winner of Wednesday morning's 12/13 game.

We had dueling basketball today, and as has been so often the case this season that means we have good news and bad news.

The bad: #14 K-State loses its season finale, an 85-63 whipping by Iowa State at Hilton. 17 from Temira Pointdexter led the way, with Serena Sundell adding 11.

02.03.2025 23:25 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

K-State came THIS close to winning this one in the bottom of the ninth, too. Seth Dardar doubled with two outs and Dee Kennedy on first; an absolutely perfect relay throw to the plate got Kennedy by a hair.

A week after a weekend in which K-State knocked off the #4, #24, and #25 teams on consecutive days, they ran into the #2 team in the nation...

...and took it to extras before falling to LSU. Hell of a baseball game.

01.03.2025 00:26 β€” πŸ‘ 6    πŸ” 2    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 2

The Wildcat slide continues in a 80-76 loss at Central Florida.

22 for Max Jones, 12 for CJ Jones, 11 for Brendan Hausen, and 10 for Dug McDaniel, who just missed a double-double with 9 assists.

K-State (13-15, 7-10) is back home Sunday to face Colorado.

27.02.2025 02:24 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

With Ayoka Lee still sidelined as a precaution, #14 K-State (25-5, 13-4) falls at home to #17 Baylor 79-62.

20 points for Serena Sundell, 16 for Kennedy Taylor.

The regular season title is now out of reach. Cats finish next Sunday at Iowa State, and a win will now be needed to get the double bye.
