Lynbrook, N.Y. - Despite being in the middle of
its season, the LIU Post women's basketball team called a timeout
on Nov. 30 to help members of the military who are recuperating
from injuries suffered while serving overseas in Iraq and
Afghanistan.
In total, 15 players volunteered two hours of their time to write
letters, Christmas cards and prepare holiday gifts in support of
the Nassau County Firefighters' Operation Wounded Warrior Program
in Lynbrook, N.Y.
Head Coach Deirdre Moore added, "We believe in [being] here for
those who are there for us.'"
