SUNY New Paltz SAAC Hosts Annual Special Olympics Basketball Tournament

The State University of New York at New Paltz Student-Athlete Advisory Committee hosted their annual Special Olympics program in the Athletic and Wellness Center.

Around 20 student-athletes volunteered to work the event, including Hawks from the men's and women's volleyball, men's and women's basketball, men's and women's lacrosse, softball and field hockey programs. Six teams participated in the Special Olympics Basketball Tournament with the Hawks helping officiate, keeping stats and scoreboard for the para-athletes to be fully immersed in their athletic environment.
