1993–94 Wright State Raiders men's basketball team
American college basketball season
The 1993–94 Wright State Raiders men's basketball team
represented Wright State University in the 1993–94 NCAA NCAA Division I
men's basketball season led by head coach Ralph Underhill .
Season summary
1993-94 was a frustrating follow-up to the conference tournament championship and NCAA birth
of the year before. A rare low-scoring Underhill team that leaned heavily on star center Mike Nahar, this team was competitive but only middle of the pack.
