PHOENIX – The Sun Devil Baseball team will take part in a fall scrimmage against CSU Northridge this Saturday, Oct. 27 at Scottsdale Stadium in Scottsdale, Ariz.
First pitch for the contest will take place at 3 p.m. PT and gates to the stadium will open at 2 p.m. Admission is free of charge to all fans planning on attending.
The event will also aim to help raise awareness and funds towards helping those with spinal cord injuries. Volunteers from the Project 34 charity will be on hand to provide information and will be accepting charitable donations.
Project 34 has one overarching goal: to positively impact the lives of individuals living with a spinal cord injury. The organization assists with the purchasing of medical equipment and assistive devices that may not be otherwise accessible to a patient, as well as provides grants to individuals to afford physical therapy for optimal function. Project 34 was founded by Sun Devil Baseball alumni Cory Hahn and Trevor Williams. In 2011, Hahn sustained a career-ending and life-changing spinal cord injury during a game at Arizona State. Project 34 was inspired by Cory's journey and the experience of approximately 285,000 people across the United States who have spinal cord injuries. Together, the two have seen firsthand the numerous supplies, devices, and equipment necessary for promoting independence, optimal health and quality of life for someone living with a spinal cord injury. The goal of Project 34 is to ease stress that accompanies the financial burden of these necessities so that the patient and their families can focus on living a fulfilling life.
