KU to honor 1993 World Series squad
Kansas hosts Oklahoma State in a Big 12 stop at Hogland Ball Park as about 20 members of KU’s 1993 College World Series team attend a 10th anniversary ceremony. Notables include pitchers Corn, Walker, Split torff and catcher Niemeier. Timely reminders of a program high watermark at 21-9 overall and 0-3 in conference. Wheeler starts on the mound while also serving as DH. A pitching-by-committee plan may be used due to Johnson’s elbow, and the May 18 KU State finale was moved to 4 p.m. for graduation.
