Kellen Pickett Leads Wright State to 76-68 Road Win Over Toledo

Wright State secured a 76-68 victory over the Toledo Rockets in Toledo on November 11, 2026, during the team’s first road contest of the season.

Sophomore Kellen Pickett led the Raiders with 19 points and 11 rebounds to earn his first double-double of the season.

The Raiders held a 36-33 advantage at halftime following an 11-point swing sparked when red-shirt freshman Isiah Williams drained both of his free throws. During the opening half, Pickett paced the squad with 11 points while shooting 3-3 from beyond the arc and adding a pair of blocks in his 16 minutes on the floor.

Pickett and junior Andrea Holden each grabbed four rebounds before the break, with Pickett collecting all four on the defensive glass. Williams, making his first career start, finished the night with nine points, five rebounds, and a pair of assists.

Wright State raised its level of play in the final 20 minutes, shooting 52% from the field and 60% from beyond the arc in the second half. The Raiders physically took control after intermission, out-blocking and out-rebounding Toledo with five swats and 20 boards. Pickett added seven second-half rebounds and finished the game with four blocks.

Freshman Noah Lewis contributed 16 points after shooting 7-9 on the night, adding four rebounds, three blocks, and three assists. Lewis opened the second half shooting 4-5 from the floor and provided an offensive spark that included a 75% shooting clip and a block and steal.

Junior Ilija Milijasevic overcame foul trouble that limited him to 11 minutes down the stretch to score 10 points in the second half—making both of his three-point attempts—to finish with 15 points in 20 total minutes on the court. As a team, the Raiders shot 49% from the field and 44% from three, scoring 36 points in the paint.
