Shocker football players return to Cessna Stadium

The public is invited to a community event as part of the May 15-16 Wichita State University all-football reunion, sponsored by the WSU Alumni Association.

Beginning at 11 a.m. Saturday, May 16, the east stands of Cessna Stadium will be open to Shocker football fans for introductions of returning players, followed by a punt, pass and kick competition.

Among participants planning to be at the event are star players, including Linwood Sexton, Prince McJunkins, James “Jumpy” Geathers, Joe Williams and coach Willie “Jeff” Jeffries.

The public can come onto the field after the competition to talk with players and get autographs.

Attendees are advised to use only the stadium's east entrance and to be aware that parking will be at a premium, as graduation exercises will be taking place at the same time in Charles Koch Arena.

No tickets are required to attend.

For more information on the event, call Amanda Zedrick at (316) 978-3874.
