WKU issues proposal for allowing athletes to return

Western Kentucky University has released a draft on when athletes can return to campus. The Bowling Green Daily News reports most WKU football players will come back to campus starting June 8th. WKU Athletics will phase the arrival of 16 teams throughout the summer for physicals and voluntary workouts. The current plan for athletes returning in August is based on health and government guidelines at the time of the proposal with dates and number of returners subject to change. WKU is proposing to bring the rest of its football team along with the volleyball and women’s soccer teams to campus on July 6. Football, volleyball and women’s soccer players are returning first to supplement time missed from what they would’ve had in the spring workouts.
