Track and Field Welcomes 2019 Signing Class

WICHITA—The Wichita State track and field teams welcomed 31 new members to the squad Monday.

"I am really pleased with how this recruiting class came together ultimately," said Director of Track and Field and Cross Country Steve Rainbolt. "There was a time in the winter when I was concerned with how recruiting was going. Ultimately, we finished strong, and I feel we put together a terrific group of freshman and transfers."

The Shockers added 11 transfer athletes and 20 true freshmen to the roster. The 11 transfers combined for 18 first team NJCAA All-America finishes at their respective junior colleges.
