NEW HAVEN, Conn. – Student-athletes and coaches from the Southern Connecticut State University men's and women's basketball teams conducted a clinic for students at the Roberto Clemente School in New Haven on Friday. This event kicks off a partnership between the two parties for the 2010-11 academic year that will include weekly academic sessions as well as athletic clinics.

This program is just one example of many community outreach events that SCSU student-athletes will take part in during the 2010-11 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 nearly 3,000 hours of their time to numerous outreach efforts, both on-campus and in Greater New Haven, during the 2009-10 academic year.
