BU lends support for flood victims in Southern Tier
On September 11, the wrestling
team spent nearly eight hours assisting flood victims in the
Southern Tier. Three coaches and 10 wrestlers joined the Red
Cross and National Guard in closing one emergency shelter and
readying displaced individuals and families for transportation
to a new shelter. The group loaded and unloaded donations at
a local charity before heading out into the neighborhoods to
help several individual families begin to clean up from the damage.
