No matter the outcome of next Sunday's game, the Ichabods will be seeing their first former player get crowned a world champion. Support Washburn Athletics and join fellow fans for our annual “Big Game” Party on February 3 starting at 4:30 p.m. in the Topeka Capitol Plaza Hotel's Shawnee Ballroom.
Cary Williams and Michael Wilhoite will both become Washburn's first players to make it to football's biggest stage and $100 will get you and a guest a ticket to watch with us on two huge screens. Come enjoy an evening of friends, fun, food, beer, quarterly prizes and a silent auction.
Net proceeds of the “Big Game” Party benefit Washburn University Athletics and our student-athletes. Call Debbie Woolaway at (785) 670-1817 with questions or to pay by credit card to reserve your spots.
