The Huskies SAAC will be presented a check for $500 that they plan donate to the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

Health means both physical and mental health: they are two sides of the same coin, with one often affecting the other. Physical problems, including sport injury, often have psychological or emotional consequences. Psychological problems, which can include eating disorders and substance-use problems, typically have physical consequences. As with physical injuries, mental health problems may affect athletic performance and limit, or even preclude, training and competition until successfully managed and treated.Â
