“I want to thank everyone who helped in any way with the canned food drive, loading and unloading,” said SAAC liaison and Associate Athletics Director DJ Bevevino. “Having the coach’s take an active role in this process helps our student-athletes see in a very concrete way the importance of helping out our community in a totally unselfish way.”

Members of the SAAC Committee, intercollegiate athletes, coaches and administrators all helped in collecting the items and then loading a big delivery truck to take the items to the food bank where they were unloaded for general use.
