NEW CASTLE, DE -- Members of the Wilmington University Athletic Department participated in the American Cancer Society's annual "Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk" held at the Wilmington Riverfront on Sunday, October 14, 2007.

The Student Athletic Advisory Committee (S.A.A.C.) was instrumental in gathering all of the student-athletes to participate for such a worthy cause.  A total of 40 members of the Athletic Department participated in the walk.  Staff and student-athletes from the Softball and Volleyball teams raised over $1,000 for the cause.

The walk had over 5,800 participants and raised a total of over $425,000 to help fight breast cancer in only its fifth year.   Both the number of walkers and amount raised were new records for the event.  The softball team had t-shirts printed up to show their support and sold them to increase their contributions.  

Erin Harvey, Sports Information Director and Softball Coach, Kim Huggins-Habbert, Volleyball Coach, and Cheyann Gilroy, S.A.A.C. President, organized Wilmington University's participation in the event, which was deemed a huge success.

Wilmington's Athletic Director, Frank Aiello stated, "It has been a great experience to see our student-athletes give back and know that they can contribute on and off the playing field."
