Just six days after the American Athletic Conference announced that the volleyball season would be delayed, the same was announced for cross country on September 1. For Wichita State, this means no fall sports will take place on campus.
From the perspective of Cross Country Head Coach Kirk Hunter, he was very confused as to whether the season was canceled or delayed but it was a major disappointment for the program as a whole.
“I was disappointed that the student-athletes weren’t getting the opportunity to compete, especially when I know half of the country is competing,” Hunter said in a phone interview with The Sunflower.
