DCCC Library Books and Bytes

Staff and students representing the library won this year’s Breast Cancer Wiffle Ball Tournament. We first played the Phi Theta Kappa team and won. Then we moved onto the championship game against the campus bookstore — yes, the BOOKSTORE. It was an epic battle of fee books vs. free books. At the bottom of the last inning it was a nail-biting 1-run game with the library in the lead.  Carol “The Batwoman” Videon caught the last fly ball for the final out to win us the game. We won 4-3. Thank you to Bob “the Tiger” Muto,  Sarah “the Slugger” Hartman-Caverly, Erica “Ace at the Plate” Danowitz, and Carol “MVP of the year” Videon for the best game ever. We won and raised money for breast cancer research – a win-win for all!
