The Marshall Graduate School of Business held their 3rd annual”Marshall Madness” on Saturday, May 22nd at the North Gym on the USCcampus. The “Madness” is a 3 on 3 basketball tournament for studentsin the graduate program, and there was great competition amongst the 4teams that battled in the double elimination format.
The real winner of the day didn’t make one basket. That’s because thenet proceeds in excess of $1,000, contributed by the tournamentplayers and friends, were donated to A Better LA.
There were some great raffle prizes for the donors, including PeteCarroll autographed t-shirts and footballs, football game tickets forthe USC opener against San Jose State, and food certificates from someof the local area restaurants. Even after 3 hours of basketball, theplayers were still enthusiastic about the prizes and interested inlearning how A Better LA functions as an organization and finds success in its work.
It is exciting to receive support and understanding from the greatbusiness leaders of the near future, and think about how they cancontinue to make a difference in their efforts with A Better LA.
