The Wildcats are looking to finish non-conference play with a fourth straight win, while pushing their record to 9-4, which would be the third-best non-conference mark by the school in the past 7 seasons. A win would ensure only the 2022-23 (12-1) and the 2023-24 (10-3) teams have finished with a better record in non-conference record since the 2019-20 season.
Led by first-year coach Phil Cunningham, ULM (3-10) has lost 3 in a row, including a double-overtime heartbreaker to South Alabama in the Sun Belt opener. The Warhawks are 0-7 on the road this season, including 0-6 in true road games with power conference losses at Ole Miss and Miami (Fla.). Junior transfer MJ Russell leads four players in double figures at 17.1 points per game, while teammate Lavell Brodnex (13.4 ppg., 9.8 rpg.) averages a near double-double.
Despite this being the first-ever meeting, the schools do have a connection in Franklin Miskelly, who spent 2 seasons (2023-25) with the Wildcats as director of video and analytics and is currently an assistant coach with the Warhawks.
K-State will be looking to continue its strong play at home, as the Wildcats are 45-11 at Bramlage Coliseum under head coach Jerome Tang, including 23-4 in non-conference play.

A K-STATE WIN WOULD…
LAST TIME OUT
Junior P.J. Haggerty led five Wildcats in double figures with a game-high 24 points, as K-State recorded its second 100-point game in a 106-76 win over South Dakota on Dec. 20. The two 100-point games tie the 1966-67, 1979-80, 1993-94 and 1997-98 teams for the single-season record.
K-State shot better than 60 percent from the field for the third time this season, as the Wildcats connected on 62.1 percent (41-of-66), including 50 percent (12-of-24) from 3-point range, and 75 percent (12-of-16) from the free throw line. The team hit on better than 56 percent in each half, including a season-high 57 first-half points on a season-high 67.6 percent (23-of-34) shooting. The 41 made field goals are the most in 115 games under Jerome Tang and the most since totaling 43 vs. UTSA more than 34 years ago on Nov. 23, 1991.
The Wildcats were particularly lethal inside the 3-point arc, hitting on 69.1 percent (29-of-42) of their 2-point attempts, including a school-record tying 56 points in the paint. The team also had 56 points in the paint against Cal earlier this season as well as against South Dakota in 2010 and Miami in 2023. The team also dished out 23 assists, including 5 each from junior Abdi Bashir Jr. and sophomore David Castillo, and posted a 44-28 advantage on the glass.
Haggerty posted his eighth game of 20 or more points this season, leading the way with 24 points on 10-of-12 field goals and 3-of-4 free throws to go with a game-high 6 rebounds and 3 assists in just over 26 minutes. He has now scored in double figures in all 12 games, while posting the second-most points (274) in that span behind Michael Beasley (310) in 2007-08.
Joining Haggerty in double figures were Castillo with 16 points, Bashir and senior Nate Johnson with 15 points each and senior Khamari McGriff with 10 points.
OFFENSE OFF TO A HOT START
K-State's offense is off to a hot start, as the Wildcats are averaging 88 points on 49.6 percent (378-of-762) shooting, including 41.2 percent (131-of-318) from 3-point range, and 71.3 percent (169-of-237) from the free throw line.
The Wildcats have scored 90 or more points in 6 of the first 12 games for the first time in school history, while their two 100-point games tie four other teams for the most in school history. The 1056 points scored are the most through the first 12 games, surpassing the 1008 scored by the 1997-98 team.
Junior P.J. Haggerty is the nation's No. 3 scorer at 22.8 points per game, while he ranks 10th in total points (274) and sixth in field goals made (97).

K-State posted the highest field goal percentage of the Jerome Tang era for the second straight game, as the Wildcats hit on 64.4 percent (38-of-59) from the field. It was the highest field goal percentage since shooting 66.0 percent vs. Wake Forest on March 14, 2017.

Castillo scored a career-high 19 points on 7-of-7 shooting, including 5-of-5 from 3-point range, while McGriff totaled 16 points on 8-of-8 field goals. Castillo is just the eighth Wildcat to go 5-of-5 from beyond the arc, joining his high school coach Clent Stewart who was in attendance.

BUCA MAKING HIS PRESENCE FELT
One of the tallest players in school history, Italian import Dorin Buca has started to find his footing in the college game as his presence was felt in the last 4 games.
