Coaches, Athletic Department Show Support for Student-Athlete March for Change

The WVU student-athlete advisory committee organized a march yesterday to show solidarity between teams in support of unity, equality and change. During and after the event coaches and many official athletic department accounts tweeted in support of the march and their players.

Inspiring to watch all WV student-athletes come together yesterday to support one another in order to create positive change. https://t.co/Hdbt35QMiY
