Fans, students donate
ULV wraps up home slate
“Wednesday’s first annual StrikeOut Cancer Day was a complete success, as the ULM softball team (Monroe, LA ) raised over $1,500 to support the fight against breast cancer in its home season finale...
“The Warhawks raised $1,670 in total donations, most of which came from ULM students and fans.
"The fundraising took place over a two-day span, with the bulk of funds coming in during Wednesday’s contest.
“'For the short amount of preparation opportunity we had, and it being our first time, we did very well,' said ( head coach Rosemary) Holloway-Hill. 'We want to make this an annual event, so this time next year we hope to double that...'
“Over 75 percent of the money raised by and donated to the local Susan G. Komen branch stays in the Monroe area to benefit clinics, screenings, and research while the remainder goes to national research."
