Kansas State associate basketball coach Chris Lowery lost his youngest son, Kahari, at the age of 15 early Tuesday morning.
Lowery’s son was diagnosed with cerebral palsy at a young age and suffered from many other health problems. But he attended many K-State games, often cheering on his father and the Wildcats in the front row in his wheelchair.
K-State coach Bruce Weber and the entire Wildcats’ roster took the news hard.
“We had a really tough day today,” Weber said. “It’s really just a tough time for all of us. I have known (Kahari) since he was born.
