Good morning! Shocker cross country is hitting the ground running as they prepare for the start of the 2024 season.
What else are we mixing into today’s edition of the Shocker Brew?
⛳️ Men’s golf releases the 2024-25 schedule
🏐 Volleyball is raising a banner
🌾 And much, much more!
🌾 ONE BIG THING
Wichita State men's golf released the Shockers' tournament slate for the upcoming 2024-25 season. The Shockers enter the year after ending the 2023-24 campaign with their best-ever finish at the AAC Championship, finishing in third place, and breaking almost every team record related to score in their history at the Championship in the process.
The 2024 fall season for the Shockers begins at the SIUE Dolenc Invitational September 9-10 in Illinois and will end the fall by hosting the third annual Grier Jones Shocker Invitational October 6-8, where the Shockers have won back-to-back titles. In the spring, the Shockers begin with a second straight international trip to Cancun, Mexico to play in the Los Vaqueros Intercollegiate at Playa Paraiso Golf Club February 2-4.
📈 STOCK UP
🔼 Hang The Banner. Following the team’s NIVC Championship victory, the Shockers will open the 2024 season by lifting a banner to commemorate the title-winning team.
