Incoming Freshmen Get a Special Welcome from Fall Athletes

Philadelphia, PA- Philadelphia University fall student-athletes lent a hand to the freshmen Class of 2015 last week as they moved in to start the new semester. This is an annual tradition at Philadelphia University under Athletic Director Tom Shirley. 

 “I think it’s important for us to be active in our community who has given us such great opportunity” said Ptah Myers, head men’s soccer coach. “My players are all students first, and athletes second”.

Moving into the dorms can be a stressful and tedious task, but with the help of the men’s and women’s soccer and cross country teams, along with the women’s tennis team- the student-athletes made it just a bit easier for the freshmen.
