WKU Athletics releases Restart Plan Proposal

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. – Western Kentucky University’s Athletic Department has released their proposal plan to bring student-athletes back to campus in phases.

According to the plan, the first phase will begin on June 8 and features a majority of the school’s football team. The department will then phase in the return of all 16 of its athletic teams throughout the rest of the summer.

WKU is proposing to bring back the remainder of its football team, as well as its volleyball and women’s soccer teams, on July 6. These specific athletes are being brought back first in an effort to make up for time they would have had during the spring semester.
