While many colleges across the nation are planning to test all returning student athletes for the coronavirus, Wichita State Athletics will only test athletes who have symptoms this summer.
Athletes are currently only allowed to return to campus for voluntary workouts, meaning they have to initiate the activity themselves.

“Right now our plan is to test them if they feel symptoms or if their self-evaluation changes or if the trainers notice something.
