Wichita State baseball head coach Eric Wedge agreed to a two-year contract extension on Tuesday. The new agreement added two years to the original contract, which was set to expire in 2024. The details of Wedge’s two-year extension were made available following an open-records request from The Sunflower.
His base salary will be set at $450,000 for the final two years of the deal. Wedge is currently in the third year of his contract and is set to make $400,000 this year.
“I feel delighted and honored that the University and athletic department are giving me the opportunity to continue my work with the baseball program and our exceptional student-athletes,” Wedge said in the release following his extension.
