Wright State won’t play in multi-team event at Illinois next week

Wright State was scheduled to play in Champaign, Ill., along with the host Illini, Ohio and North Carolina A&T. Wright State would have played Ohio on Wednesday, Illinois on Thursday and North Carolina A&T on Friday.

“As we have seen this summer and fall with professional sports and college football, disruption is likely while competing in a pandemic,” Wright State Athletic Director Bob Grant said in a statement. “We must continue to hold the health, safety and wellness of our student-athletes, coaches and staff as our top priority as we navigate through this current athletic landscape.”
