Softball Players — Form a Team and Support a Charity

William Armstrong, risk manager, human resources (Metro), and Richard Panicucci, quantitative analysis and assistant campus provost for campus life (Metro), and their committee are seeking to recruit players for a charity softball game on Friday, April 30, to benefit Tomorrows Children’s Fund (TCF). TCF is a privately funded, nonprofit organization that eases the pain and suffering of children fighting cancer or serious blood disorders. TCF is connected to the Don Imus - WFAN Pediatric Center for Tomorrows Children at Hackensack University Medical Center, N.J.

The WFAN softball team will play a seven-inning game against an FDU composite team at the softball field, Metropolitan Campus. In the event of rain, the plan now is to hold a volleyball match in the Rothman Center.

Panicucci will work with the departments to help assemble groups of FDU players. A department also may sponsor a group (one faculty member, one administrator/staff and one student) for $50. The group will be part of the team and play at least one inning against the WFAN team. At the end of this month, Panicucci will e-mail information on how to register players before the March 26 deadline.

Also during the day there will be a home run derby ($5 for three chances to hit a ball over the fence into the Hackensack River), a 50/50 raffle and a bake/cake sale in the Dickinson Hall lobby at noon. Gourmet Dining will set up a hot dog cart to serve picnic-type food.

Individual donations may be made during the game.

Other members of the committee are Catherine Liggitt, head, athletics trainer (Metro); Craig Mourton, director, student life (Metro); Pat Knigge, payroll administrator, human resources (Metro); David Miles, director, public safety; Art Petrosemolo, associate vice president for communications/marketing (Metro/Flor); and Michele Vaccaro, MBA program adviser, Silberman College, and assistant to the provost for special projects (Metro).
