SU softball to host clinic this weekend to benefit Relay for Life
SALISBURY, Md. - The Salisbury University softball team will hold its sixth annual SU softball clinic on Sunday, February 18, from Noon until 4 p.m. at North Caroline High School to benefit Caroline County’s Relay for Life. The Sea Gulls will run a clinic for girls 8-13 years old from Noon until 1:45 p.m. followed by a clinic for girls 14 and older from 2-3:45 p.m.

The clinic hits home for SU coach Margie Knight who coached the North Caroline High School volleyball and softball teams for 13 years before returning to her alma mater, SU class of 1979, to coach the same sports for the Sea Gulls. At North Caroline, Knight led the Bulldogs to three Maryland state championships (softball 1988, ’91 and volleyball 1990). Knight compiled a 392-77 combined record in both sports during her tenure at NCHS.

"As a former member of the Caroline County community (17 years), I jumped at the opportunity to give back to an area that means so much to me personally," said Knight. "It is really special to have my softball team join me in this cause. The student-athletes get to see how their passion for softball, plus a little donated personal time, can enhance other people’s lives and make a difference."

For more information about the clinic contact Bev Ward at 410-479-2332 at NCHS. The Caroline County Relay for Life will be held on June 15, 2007.
