Today, Shocker Nation needs to mark the calendars
Good morning! All season long, Shocker Nation continued to raise the bar when it came to filling the stands at Wilkins Stadium.
What else are we mixing into todayโs Brew?

๐๏ธ Keeping Score
๐พ โ And much, much more!
๐พ ONE BIG THING
Mark your calendars. On Saturday, Dec. 21, Shocker menโs basketball will welcome the Kansas State Wildcats to Charles Koch Arena for an in-state showdown. The final year of a four-year contract will bring the Wildcats to the Roundhouse for the first time since 2002. The Shockers are 9-7 all-time vs. K-State at home, but will look to snap a four-game losing streak to the Wildcats.
๐ STOCK UP
๐ผ Fan Friendly. After hearing feedback from Shocker Nation, Wichita State Athletics will introduce new premium seating opportunities at the Charles Koch Arena for the 2024-25 menโs basketball season. The opportunities include new season ticket pricing and new courtside seating options.
๐ฃ๏ธ "Through a broad range of engagements, listening and learning throughout these last many months, we have come to better understand the priorities and needs of Shocker Nation." - Kevin Saal, Director of Athletics
๐ผ Keeping Score. The NCAA announced the Academic Progress Rate (APR) for all DI programs, and Wichita Stateโs 957 is well within the NCAAโs standards. Wichita State saw seven programs earn a perfect score of 1000 for the 2022-23 academic year โ men's cross country, men's golf, men's tennis, men's track and field, softball, women's tennis, and volleyball.
๐ค SHOCKER TRIVIA
