The Saint Mary’s University athletic department learned that it was honored — twice — for its volunteer efforts during the previous academic year with National Association of Division III Athletic Administrators (NADIIIAA)/Jostens Community Service Awards.
To commit to these significant hours of community service — given the tremendous time constraints and busy lives of student-athletes — shows the well-rounded experience of our students and the true spirit of Division III athletics.
Saint Mary’s student-athletes donated over 3,000 hours of time to projects including — but not limited to — painting buildings, working with Winona area youth, Special Olympics young athletes program, Spruce Up Winona and Make a Difference Day. The awards program singled out the “Strong is the New Beautiful” 5K run/walk benefit to support senior volleyball player Sabrina Bushlack in her recovery from a car accident.
