NEW HAVEN, Conn. – The Southern Connecticut State University athletic department concluded its second year of tutoring with youngsters at the Clinton Avenue School in New Haven on Wednesday with a pizza party. Student-athletes from numerous teams took part in coursework and tutoring assistance with first and second graders throughout the course of the 2009-10 academic year.

This program is just one example of many community outreach events that SCSU student-athletes will take part in 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 have volunteered more than 2,500 hours of their time to numerous outreach efforts, both on-campus and in Greater New Haven, during the 2009-10 academic year.
