Hamden, Conn. - Student-athletes and coaches
from both the Southern Connecticut State University men's and
women's basketball programs conducted a clinic for students at the
Church Street School in Hamden on Wednesday afternoon.
This event is just one example of many community outreach events
that SCSU student-athletes will take part in during the 2012-13
academic year as part of the Tim Greer Insurance Agency Community
Service Cup.
Initiated in September, 2008, the 'Community Service Cup' program provides a competitive format that allows student-athletes to gain an enriched experience through engagement with the on-campus and local communities by supporting ventures of traditional citizens, campus community members and peer students and student-athletes. SCSU student-athletes volunteered more than 3,000 hours of their time to numerous outreach efforts, both on-campus and in Greater New Haven, during the 2011-12 academic year.
