NEW HAVEN, Conn. - The Southern Connecticut State University softball team participated in a Walk to End Alzheimer's event at Lighthouse Point Park in New Haven over the weekend. Student-athletes and coaches walked in the event and helped to raise funds for the initiative.

This event is just one example of many community outreach events that SCSU student-athletes take part in on an annual basis. SCSU student-athletes volunteered more than 2,500 hours of their time to numerous outreach efforts, both on-campus and in Greater New Haven, during the 2016-17 academic year.
