Kansas State takes on West Virginia Tuesday night
It’s amazing how much things can change after one game. Sure, UCF is going to struggle in Big 12 play, but a conference blowout is nothing to sneeze at. Kansas State came out firing on Saturday, and played as close to a complete game as they have all season.
Now the question becomes, can they sustain it?
The Wildcats (11-3, 1-0) will get a great opportunity to keep that train rolling today against a West Virginia squad that is in last place in the Big 12, and the only Big 12 team currently below .500 overall. The Mountaineers sit at just 5-9 and 0-1 in Big 12 play after getting smacked around by Houston in their Big 12 opener. The ‘Eers have yet to beat a power conference opponent in five tries, and their best win came a month ago over Drexel in Morgantown.
Of course part of that was WVU not playing with a couple of expected starters, as RaeQuan Battle (whom the Cats beats last year in the NCAA Tournament while he was playing for Montana State) and Noah Farrakhan only became eligible in late December thanks to court action against the NCAA. But still, the ‘Eers have just one game since their return, a 91-81 win over Toledo on Dec. 23rd. For a full preview on West Virginia, be sure and check out Drew’s writeup.
Regardless of who WVU has eligible, this is a game K-State should win. The ‘Eers lost to UMass 87-79 a few weeks ago, and Frank Martin’s Minutemen occupy the spot right above K-State in the most recent NET rankings. Of course the rosters have changed since then, but hopefully Jerome Tang and his staff still have the notes from last March on how to deal with Battle. And hopefully the momentum and energy from Saturday can keep the Cats rolling tonight.
Tonight’s matchup is scheduled for a 6:02pm CT tip at Bramlage Coliseum and will be streamed on Big 12 Now on ESPN+ with Joel Godett (play-by-play) and Tim Welsh (analyst) on the call. You’ll also be able to hear the game online at K-StateSports.com (and via the Varsity Network app), plus parts of the K-State Sports Radio Network and on SiriusXM 386 with Wyatt Thompson (play-by-play) and Stan Weber (analyst) calling the action over there.
Go Cats!

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (WAVY) — Four new trollies will join the VB Wave Trolley fleet beginning May 10, when Virginia Beach Wave Trolley will resume its seasonal service along the oceanfront.
Trolley season lasts through September 25-27 for the Virginia Beach Neptune Festival.
A total of 14 new trollies will be part of the fleet this year, gradually replacing the older versions. The 29-foot trolley replica buses seat 29 people and feature wooden seats, with “sky-blue and sand-colored brown exterior,” according to Hampton Roads Transit (HRTS). Last year, 281,507 riders used the trolley system.
“This year marks the 42nd season of the VB Wave trolley, and these new trollies will provide a comfortable, safe, and efficient ride for visitors and locals alike,” William E. Harrell said. He is the president and CEO of HRT. “As part of our partnership with the city of Virginia Beach, the VB Wave makes it easy for everyone to visit attractions and explore the Oceanfront and beyond without the hassles of parking or the high cost of gas,” Harrell said.
The following routes will operate May 10 through Sept. 27 for the Neptune Festival:
Route 30 is the Atlantic Avenue Trolley, running along the Oceanfront between JT’s Grommet Island Park to Fortieth Street. This service operates daily from 8 a.m.- 2 a.m.
Route 31 is the aquarium and campground trolley along General Booth Boulevard. It runs daily from 9:30 a.m.-11:10 p.m. through Labor Day and again on Fridays through Sundays from Sept. 11 through Sept. 27. Route 31 also extends to Atlantic Avenue and 18th Street.
Route 35 is the Bayfront Bus, providing service between Parks Avenue and 19th Street and Shore Drive and Pleasure House Road, enabling customers to visit Chesapeake Bay beaches, First Landing State Park, and Bayfront restaurants. It operates daily from 8 a.m.-12:30 a.m. through Labor Day and then Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays only from Sept. 11 through the Sept. 27 festival
The VB Wave trolley connects to HRT bus lines, Routes 20 and 960, with access to the Newtown Road Light Rail Station and the Downtown Norfolk Transit Center.
Fares are $2 one way or $4.50 for an all-day pass. Kids 17 and under ride free with a paying adult. Riders can pay for tickets using HRT’s GoMobile app and a credit card. Riders can create and manage multiple virtual cards and reload value for easy group boarding, and need to have a unique scannable virtual card for boarding. Children are not required to scan a virtual card or pay fare when boarding with an adult.
Customers can also tap to pay using credit and debit cards. KOA Campground, Virginia Gift Shop, nine Sunsations locations, and Ocean Wave Gift Shop sell tickets. Riders can also pay with exact change cash onboard the trolley.
In addition, HRT is introducing a new route in Virginia Beach beginning May 10. The new Route 981 will connect the Amazon Fulfillment Center (ORF 4) at 1795 Dam Neck Road with the Downtown Norfolk Transit Center.
Route 33 service is being restored to Atlantic Avenue and 68th Street 365 days a year to support the oceanfront hospitality industry.
