UMD ATHLETES AND STAFF CLEAR 3,000-HOUR MARK FOR VOLUNTEERISM IN 2016-17

June 1, 2017 By Team Up 4 Community

University of Minnesota Duluth student-athletes, coaches and staff, logged 3,050 hours of community service during the 2016-17 athletic season with the last of those coming on May 25 when seven volunteers collected trash along a two-mile stretch of right-of-way along U.S. Highway 53 (near Canyon, Minn.) as part of the Minnesota Department of Transportation’s Adopt-A-Highway program.

Nearly 40 different organizations were beneficiaries of the Bulldogs’ volunteering efforts this past year, including Duluth’s Laura MacArthur Elementary School and Homecroft Elementary School, Make-A-Wish, Salvation Army, Udac, Mentor Duluth, the Lion’s Cub, and the American Red Cross.

Women’s tennis topped all UMD teams in average volunteer hours (21.7 hours per player) en route to claiming the inaugural UMD Team Impact Award while football (13.1 hours) and women’s basketball (11.0 hours) were next.
