The Wichita Regional Final will pit the region’s top seed against a TBT upstart that has already sent two veteran teams packing.

The AfterShocks, the region’s #1 seed, will once again be playing in front of their home fans at Koch Arena. The Wichita State alumni squad can beat its opponents in so many ways. The sharp-shooting Conner Frankamp, who has made a habit of hitting TBT Elam Enders, leads the way at 15.5 points per game. Darral Willis (13.5 ppg) and Markis McDuffie (10 ppg) are both averaging in double-digits for the AfterShocks.

Bleed Green is making the most of its TBT debut this summer. After roaring back from a 12-point deficit and upsetting Eberlein Drive in a Round 1 thriller, the University of North Texas alumni squad routed Purple & Black by 25 points in Round 2. Bleed Green moves the ball as well as any team in the field and has an array of weapons. Brandon Jefferson leads the team in scoring at 20 ppg, and Jordan Stevens (15.5 ppg) and Shannon Shorter (15 ppg) contribute to the third-highest scoring team in the field.
