Visiting Kent State held the lead for only 2:52 on Saturday night, but it was a three-pointer with under 10 seconds remaining that handed Wright State a 72-71 loss inside the Nutter Center. Kent State's Danny Pippen hit a contested three from the corner in front of his bench as the clock ticked under 10 seconds to play to give the visitors their one-point advantage. Cole Gentry drove the length of the court for Wright State before the ball was deflected out of bounds, setting up an inbounds pass and a midrange jumper from Bill Wampler that bounced away as the final horn sounded. Wampler finished with a game-high 18 points for the Raiders, who also saw Hall finish in double figures with a 15-point scoring night of his own. Trey Calvin tallied nine points, while Gentry and Loudon Love each added eight points.

KNIGHT TO SEE YOU
Wednesday's matchup will be the sixth all-time between Wright State and Urbana, with the Raiders having won each of the five previous meetings. The last time the teams got together was in December 2016, when the Raiders handled the Blue Knights by an 85-34 score. The teams' only other meeting this century came in December of the 2014-15 campaign, an 81-58 Raider victory. Wright State and Urbana have also squared off during the 1973-74, 1974-75 and 1984-85 campaigns. 

BILL FOR 1,000?
Senior Bill Wampler is on the verge of the 1,000-career point plateau, entering Tuesday's game against Urbana just seven points shy of the mark. Wampler amassed 408 points in two seasons at Drake (2015-17) and has tallied 585 points to date as a Raider over the 2018-19 campaign and the first three games of this season. 

Wampler is averaging 15.5 points per game through five games, scoring seven points in the season opener against Central State before back-to-back double-digit games against Miami (17), Tennessee Tech (20) and Kent State (18).
