NEW HAVEN, Conn. - Senior Ryan Morgan of the field hockey team and junior Lynette Martinez of the women's lacrosse team talked with students from the Amistad Academy on Thursday. Students visited the Southern Connecticut campus and stopped in Engelman Hall for a discussion with the student-athletes.

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 volunteered more than 3,000 hours of their time to numerous outreach efforts, both on-campus and in Greater New Haven, during the 2010-11 academic year.
