Wichita State Shockers Men's Basketball Tickets

Founded in 1906 in Wichita, Kansas, the Wichita State Shockers men's basketball program has built a reputation for relentless defense and Roundhouse roars. The Shockers reached the NCAA Final Four in 1965 and again in 2013, lifted the 2011 NIT championship trophy, and have stacked conference titles across eras. Names like Dave Stallworth, Xavier McDaniel, and modern heroes Fred VanVleet and Ron Baker anchor a lineage of toughness and skill, highlighted by the 35-0 regular season in 2013-14.

Home games at Charles Koch Arena, still lovingly called The Roundhouse, are a spectacle. The bowl design concentrates noise, WuShock leads the charge, and the student section keeps the building bouncing from warmups to the last whistle. Rivalries with Tulsa and regional foes add spice to every schedule. Ready to be part of it? Buy tickets from Vivid Seats to experience it live!
