Bronxville will be getting a good run this Saturday and helping a special cause at the same time.
The Broncos are the lone team from the Hudson Valley/Long Island/Connecticut region competing in a preseason tournament on Saturday at St. Joseph’s High School in Metuchen, N.J., to benefit Fields of Growth.
All proceeds of the event will go directly to the Epiphany School in Southwest Uganda.
“This school was set up for the children of the displaced Batwa Pygmies,” Bronxville coach Tim Horgan said. “The money will be designated to purchase a piece of land that will be leveled and seeded and used for a lacrosse field, a health clinic and a permaculture demonstration garden. A sign will be erected at the new field with a special dedication note listing the schools that participate in the tournament.”
In addition to Bronxville and St. Joseph’s, other teams competing in the event are New Jersey-based schools Christian Brothers Academy, Montclair, St. Peter’s Prep, and Columbia.
