The $75 million dollar West Stadium Center project is officially underway at Bill Snyder Family Stadium. K-State president Kirk Schulz, athletic director John Currie and other dignitaries participated in a groundbreaking on Saturday before the annual spring game. The new facility will include 40 suites, a new press box, and a training table for all Wildcat student-athletes. Currie says there will be an aggressive construction schedule, beginning immediately. Currie says this project will help K-State catch up to the rest of the Big 12 schools, most of which have similar facilities. The West Stadium Center project is scheduled to be complete on August 31st, 2013 in time for next year’s season opener.
