Haynes-Jones carries Wichita St. past Clemson 63-55 in NIT
CLEMSON, S.C. -- In a story March 24 about an NIT game between Wichita State and Clemson, The Associated Press reported erroneously that Wichita State's next game is Thursday night. Wichita State's next game is Tuesday night, not Thursday night.
A corrected version of the story is below:
