BATON ROUGE, La. – Ten LSU swimmers and divers volunteered at a local Baton Rouge hospital on Saturday, Sept. 24.
Mikayda Mills, Zack Wepasnick, Kyra Jones, Sam Jardine, Shane Coltharp, Brock Davis, Timmy Dassinger, Craig Hamilton, Nick Kunkel and Michael Young represented the team.
The athletes met in the playroom on the 3rd floor with a staff member who took them room to room visiting all the patients on the floor that permitted visitors. The Tigers interacted with the kids and their families and cheered them up.
“It was a heart warming experience to reach out and spread some LSU pride to brighten someone’s day,” Mills said.
The Tigers will also be visiting local hospitals two more times this semester on Sunday Oct. 2nd and Sunday Oct. 9.
