Creighton blew a 12-point lead with five minutes to play but held off Wichita State 68-65 Saturday night.

Creighton’s P’Allen Stinnett, whose two free throws broke a tie with 1:09 remaining, missed a free throw with 12.9 seconds left to give Wichita State a chance, but Gal Mekel’s rushed 3-pointer missed just before the buzzer.

Creighton (12-3, 3-2 Missouri Valley) was led by Stinnett’s 16 points and 15 from Nick Bahe. The Shockers (8-8, 1-4 MVC) got 21 points from P.J. Couisnard.
