Happening this month is the annual “Seahawks Take Flight campaign,” an annual fundraiser to boost Salve Regina Athletics and Seahawk student athletes.
The campaign is currently running through Sunday October 29th, with just under $39,000 raised thus far (as of 10/12).
Fall athletes are in the height of their seasons, winter athletes are eagerly preparing for the start of theirs, and spring athletes are practicing and participating in team workouts to ensure a successful second half of the year.
From the campaign itself:
“This fall, our Seahawks are gearing up for a thrilling NEWMAC season, and we need your support to help them soar to victory. Your contribution, regardless of its size, will make a significant impact on our athletes’ success. Be part of this exciting journey, where you can support your favorite sport(s) and be a driving force behind Salve Regina’s athletic excellence. Your involvement can help us create a vibrant and winning Salve Regina sports community.”
Salve athletics has shown tremendous success through the fall in adjusting to NEWMAC (New England Women and Men’s Athletic Conference) competition. The Field Hockey team has put up some impressive individual numbers, with Forward and Senior captain Shannon Kennedy (Royserford, PA) ranking 2nd in the nation in points per game (3.71), Sophomore Julia Decker (Newton, NJ) ranking 3rd in the nation in goals per game (1.57). Football is currently 5-1 overall, undefeated in conference play, and is set to square off against Springfield on Saturday, October 21st in Springfield, Massachusetts. Their defense has been a focal point for the team, allowing only 41 points through six games, two of those being shutouts.
Let’s help continue the recent and future success of our Salve athletics for the rest of the 2023-2024 campaigns, as well as for years down the road. Seahawks athletics has shown its ability to compete against the top competition with the Division III ranks, and assistance during this campaign will help make those continued strides a consistent reality.
Any monetary donation, or even just a continued sharing of the link, is extremely helpful and very much appreciated.
Go Seahawks!
