HONOLULU, Hawai'i - Kansas State's season came to an end on Friday night in Hawai'i as the Wildcats were swept by the Pepperdine Waves in the Regional Semifinals of the NCAA Tournament. K-State could not find a way to slow down Pepperdine's top player, and the Wildcats could not get its own offense moving fast enough to put pressure on the Waves.
K-State (22-11) fell 18-25, 12-25, 23-25 ending a successful season after being selected to finish eighth in the Big 12 Conference in the preseason.
