WOMEN'S BASKETBALL MIDNIGHT RUN - OCTOBER 14th, 2004

The Iona College women's basketball team completed its first Midnight Run, the night before “Mulcahy Madness” for their first community initiative of the year.

They met in the gymnasium at 7:45 pm to meet members of Iona’s Campus ministry at the Montgomery House. They then prepared food, drinks, and gathered clothing. The squad departed for New York City at 9:30 pm after completing the preparation of the supplies and loading the loading vans. At 10:00 p.m., they began route for the Midnight run with stops at: 65th & CPW, 58th & Broadway, 53rd & Broadway, Times Square Church on 51st; 50th & Broadway with the last run on 46th Street.

After a rewarding evening, the women’s basketball team departed New York City at 12:45am. They collaborated with the Iona College Campus Ministry for this tremendous evening in providing the less fortunate with the things we tend to take for granted on a day-to-day basis.
