The Wichita State Men's Basketball team walks out of the Texas Wesleyan weight room after hearing the news of the American Athletic Conference cancellation on Thursday, March 12.
FORT WORTH, Texas – American Athletic Conference commissioner Mike Aresco does not know what the future of spring sports holds.
Aresco took the podium in Fort Worth at noon on Wednesday to discuss the decision to cancel the men’s basketball conference tournament. The AAC was the first to do so out of the major conferences – the Power 5 conferences followed suit. He made it clear that there was no prior discussion directly with other conferences and that the AAC was making this decision on their own.
