MOUNT ALOYSIUS TENNIS HOSTS FITNESS FUN WORKSHOP

The Mount Aloysius College women's tennis team recently participated in an outreach program involving local youth. The Mercy Youth Initiative is designed to give 7th, 8th, and 9th graders from the Penn Cambria School District opportunities to be mentored by college students. The tennis team hosted a "Fitness Fun" workshop in the college's new Athletic Convocation and Wellness Center. The student-athletes helped organize games of soccer, basketball, volleyball, and ever-popular kickball. The participants had an opportunity to ask questions about being a college student-athlete and the team members were able to discuss the importance of doing well in school, as well as staying active.
