The University of Minnesota Duluth Department of Intercollegiate Athletics has been involved with the Special Olympics program for decades and the association continued last weekend at Stillwater Area High School where Lauren Bruha was on hand. The junior-to-be sprinter/hurdler from Prior Lake, Minn., volunteered at the awards tent during the three-day Minnesota Summer Special Olympics, handing out medals and visiting the some of the 1,200 participants and 600 coaches who took part in the event.
Bruha and UMD’s other 400-plus student-athletes have logged approximately 2,000 volunteer hours since the start of the 2013-14 school year.
