Athletes can put in the work at the new weight room in Charles Koch Arena, which was funded by multiple donors, including Fred VanVleet.

Wichita State basketball has a secret weapon this season — a fully renovated weight room.

Located in Charles Koch Arena, the Fred VanVleet Sports Performance Complex was finished in late July, and the 2023 season is the first to be impacted by it.

While most fans show up to see athletes on the court, during the season, players spend up to 20 hours a week training in addition to practices and games.
