FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. – The Nova Southeastern baseball team recently took part in in the annual Miracle League event in Pembroke Pines, Fla.
The Miracle League program of Pembroke Pines was established eight years ago for disabled children, in order to give them the opportunity to play baseball and experience what it's like to be on a team. The organization looks for local baseball players to volunteer time to buddy with a player in order to aid and encourage them throughout the entire game.
Director of Athletics Michael Mominey helped initiate the event eight years ago, while he was the head baseball coach at NSU, by bringing his teams to volunteer every year. Since then, current head coach Greg Brown has kept the tradition alive over the past three years.
