ALBANY, N.Y. - The College of Saint Rose
basketball teams recently held a holiday clinic in conjunction with
the Albany Police Athletic League. Youths from the city spent an
afternoon on campus at the Daniel P. Nolan Gymnasium learning about
both basketball and life skills from student-athletes and members
of the coaching staffs.
The event represents just one of numerous community service
projects that Saint Rose student-athletes complete every year. It
furthermore puts forth another example of how Saint Rose
student-athletes embody a major prong of the College’s
mission statement to engage with the school’s urban
environment and thus help foster a sense of motivated and caring
citizenship.
