NEW CASTLE, DE – Members of the Wilmington College Athletic Department participated in the American Cancer Society’s annual “Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk” held at the Wilmington Riverfront on Sunday, October 15, 2006.

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 5,100 participants and raised a total of over $335,000 to help fight breast cancer in only its fourth year.   The softball team had t-shirts printed up to show their support and sold them to increase their contributions.  

Dr. Clint Robertson, Faculty Athletics Representative, Erin Harvey, Sports Information Director and Softball Coach, and Monica Hofmann, S.A.A.C. President, organized Wilmington College's participation in the event, which was deemed a huge success.

Wilmington's Athletic Director, Frank Aiello states, "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."
