The Wichita State track and field program will host the 2022 American Athletic Conference outdoor championships, from May 13-15, at Cessna Stadium, the team announced in a release on Monday.
The University of Houston was previously slated to host the event, but relinquished its rights to host a Conference Championship, with the announcement last month that they would be leaving the conference in 2023.
“We feel that we do an extremely good job of hosting championship meets and we like it,” director of track and field Steve Rainbolt said. “We’re very excited about the opportunity to host this championship meet.
