Wichita State mourns the loss of longtime pole vault coach, Pat Wilson, who passed away of brain cancer Sunday evening.
"Coach Pat Wilson was such an integral part of Shocker track and field for the last 16 years and is a gentleman that was loved universally by athletes throughout the Wichita State track and field program from all event areas," Director of Track and Field/Cross Country Steve Rainbolt said.
Wilson served as an assistant coach for the Shocker track and field program for 16 years before stepping away to focus on his health last fall.
