MORGANTOWN, W.Va. – Seventeen West Virginia University student-athletes will graduate with undergraduate or graduate degrees when the University holds its winter commencement ceremony on Friday, December 16, at 1:30 p.m., inside the WVU Coliseum.
“I want to congratulate all the graduates and thank them for their contributions to West Virginia athletics,” Director of Athletics Shane Lyons said. “This is a special time for families and especially our student-athletes. They have gone through all the hard work it takes to be a student-athlete on the highest level, and today is a well-earned accomplishment.”
The student-athletes and their families gathered for a luncheon with coaches and athletic department staff late Friday morning prior to commencement.
