POUGHKEEPSIE, N.Y. - Five members of Dr. Keith Strudler's sports public relations class will be holding a Nintendo Wii sports tournament on Monday, Apr. 23, 2007 in the Cabaret, located on the second floor of the Student Center.
Participants will have the opportunity to compete in sports video games including bowling, boxing and tennis. Both the boxing and tennis tournaments will be held in a bracket format, while the bowling tournament will consist of high scores from a three-game series. The top four scores will advance to the final round. The entrance fee to the tournament is $1 for each sport the participant wishes to compete in. Prizes have been donated from Dick's Sporting Goods located in the Poughkeepsie Galleria and MardiBob HoeBowl bowling alley located in the Town of Poughkeepsie. Food will be provided by Angelina's Pizzeria in Hyde Park. Over $400 in prizes have been donated to the cause. Joanna Biron, director of participant relations, said she is excited about the number of sign-ups already received. “During our time at the sign-up tables, I saw the event has been extremely well-received by the student population,” she said. “We, as a group, plan to put forth a great product for the Marist community.”
