Kappa Sigma Holds Inaugural Homers For Heroes Tournament

Kappa SigmaSALISBURY, MD---Salisbury University students recently battled on the softball diamond to benefit those who battled overseas during the inaugural Homers for Heroes tournament, hosted by SU’s Pi-Sigma chapter of the Kappa Sigma fraternity.

Played on SU’s newly installed artificial turf intramural fields, the event raised some $1,200 for the Kappa Sigma Military Heroes Campaign to support ongoing care for veterans and their families.

A squad consisting of members of the SU football team won the men’s bracket, while the Alpha Sigma Tau sorority took top honors in the women’s. Other teams included a Pi Sigma alumni squad, which joined the fraternity’s current members for dinner after the tournament.

Supplemental fundraisers included T-shirt sales, concessions and local restaurant benefits. Internationally, the Kappa Sigma Military Heroes Campaign has raised more than $1 million since 2007.
