  • Chicago White Sox named recipient of 2012 Steve Patterson Award for Excellence in Sports Philanthropy (9/12) Team recognized for Volunteer Corps Program; Award is one of highest honors in sports philanthropy. CHICAGO – The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) today named the Chicago White Sox as a recipient of the 2012 Steve Patterson Award for Excellence in Sports Philanthropy for the Chicago White Sox Volunteer Corps program. The award celebrates and promotes those in sports who are improving lives of others by leveraging the unique influence of sports. The White Sox established the first of its kind Volunteer Corps, which has brought together more than 5,500 fans, players, coaches, and club executives to assist underserved Chicago neighborhoods through volunteer work. Since it was founded in 2009, the Corps has logged more than 17,000 hours of service, including participating in blood drives that have helped save up to 1,200 lives; repacking more than 150,000 pounds of food that has fed approximately 40,000 hungry families and individuals in Chicago; and taking part in renovation and beautification projects for Chicago public schools and Boys & Girls Club locations. Several other professional sports teams have replicated the Corps model. The White Sox Volunteer Corps also was recognized with the 2011 Commissioner’s Award for Philanthropic Excellence, which was created to recognize outstanding community efforts of an MLB Club.

College sports

Other sports

[edit]

Though football may receive a lot of media attention due to its annual rivalry game, West Point has a long history of athletics in other NCAA sports.[8] Army is a member of the Division I Patriot League in most sports,[9] while its men's ice hockey program competes in Atlantic Hockey.[10] Every year, Army faces the Royal Military College of Canada (RMC) Paladins in the annual West Point Weekend hockey game.[11] This series, conceived in 1923, is the longest running annual international sporting event in the world,[12] and was featured on a $100 commemorative gold Canadian coin in 2006.

The men's lacrosse team has won eight national championships and appeared in the NCAA tournament fifteen times. In its early years, lacrosse was used by football players, like the "Lonesome End" Bill Carpenter, to stay in shape during the off-season.[13] The 2005–06 women's basketball team went 20–11 and won the Patriot League tournament. They went to the 2006 NCAA Women's Division I Basketball Tournament as a 15th-ranked seed, where they lost to Tennessee, 102–54. It was the first March Madness tournament appearance for any Army basketball team. The head coach of that team, Maggie Dixon, died soon after the season at only 28 years of age. Bob Knight, the winningest men's basketball coach in NCAA history, began his head coaching career at Army in the late 1960s[14] before moving on to Indiana and Texas Tech. One of Knight's players at Army was Mike Krzyzewski, who later was head coach at Army before moving on to Duke, where he has won three national championships.[15]

[Image:West Point Rugby Player.jpg|right|thumb|Army men's rugby]] Approximately 15% of cadets are members of a club sport team. West Point fields a total of 24 club sports teams and in the last two years, academy club teams have won six national championships. So far in 2009, Army was won the national titles in Judo, Boxing, Orienteering, and Pistol.[16][17] In 2008, West Point club sport teams won national championships in boxing, orienteering, men's team handball, and women's pistol, while in 2007, West Point captured national titles in cycling and women's team handball.[17]

The majority of the student body, about 65%, competes in intramural sports, known at the academy as "company athletics". DPE's Competitive Sports committee runs the club and company athletics sports programs and was recently named one of the "15 Most Influential Sports Education Teams in America" by the Institute for International Sport.[18] The fall season sees competition in basketball, biathlon, full-contact football, soccer, ultimate disc, and wrestling; while the spring season sees competition in combative grappling, floor hockey, orienteering, rugby, and swimming.[19] In the spring, each company also fields a team entry into the annual Sandhurst Competition, a military skills event conducted by the Department of Military Instruction.[20]

Pearl Harbor attack

[edit]

"There's the old barracks at Hickam that still displays holes from machine gun bullets Japanese airmen fired during the attack. The building now houses the Air Force's headquarters for the Pacific region. It's not far from a distinctive water storage tower, called the Freedom Tower, that Japanese pilots avoided shooting at because they thought it was a religious shrine." McAvoy, Audrey (January 30, 2010). "A military union: historic bases at Pearl Harbor, Hickam are joining as one". The Associated Press (at Los Angeles Times). Retrieved 2010-01-31.
