The hardships that WSU senior center Riley Sorenson has faced in the last year are mmense. From losing both parents, to almost missing out on his senior due to cancer, Sorenson has seemingly gone through it all. Thursday night, KREM’s Evan Closky shed light on the offensive lineman’s tumultuous last 10 months.
The story provides insight into what has been going on in Sorenson’s life, and the support that’s been given to him. Sorenson missed two of the Coug’s final three football games in 2015 to be with his ill parents. In November, he wasn’t in Pullman to play Colorado because he was with his mom, who had been diagnosed with stage four melanoma.
