I would like to thank everyone that helped to make the USTA Campus Kids Day a success yesterday. Our sports info staff did a great job getting our mascot out on the court and setting up the root beer float stand. Our event management staff helped get the free pizza set up and thanks to Andy Findlay from the USTA, Mark Vandewater from Gamma, and David Wahlgren from Wilson for providing some prizes to give away to the kids. Thanks to the USTA for the stipend and for the great idea! I would also like to thank the College of Wooster for their willingness to adjust their schedule and have to travel a little shorthanded due to class conflicts. The Wooster coaches and players did a great job making all the kids feel welcome. It was really neat watching the kids go out and shake hands with the players and coaches and then join the players in the team huddle. Even though we were forced to have it on a Thursday instead of Saturday (due to the weather) we still had a great turn out.
Here is a photo gallery of the day's activities.
