Gwynedd Mercy University's Athletics Department will lend its Turf Field to Upper Dublin High School for three of their upcoming senior night games, since the high school is still recovering from the devastating effects of Hurricane Ida.
The games include:
- Monday October 4, 2021 at 7:00 pm - Field Hockey
- Monday October 11, 2021 at 7:00 pm - Boys' Soccer
- Monday October 18, 2021 at 7:00pm - Girls' Soccer
"Helping the Upper Dublin High School student-athletes have a senior night, after the storm destroyed their facilities, was a request that I did not hesitate on," said GMercyU's Director of Athletics Keith Mondillo. "Gwynedd Mercy University has always been active in the community, and I am glad that we can provide a temporary home for the Upper Dublin coaches, athletes, and families."
GMercyU hosts 19 NCAA Division III teams and houses several facilities for our student-athletes, including cardio and weight rooms, the Griffin Complex, and the outdoor athletic complexes.
The University takes pride in sportsmanship and comradery among its student-athletes and in fostering the wellbeing and success of each student-athlete, in and out season.
