Jackson, MS  - The Millsaps Men's Lacrosse Team will sponsor a fundraising event this spring benefiting the Wounded Warrior Project.
 
The event, which features a 5K run and crawfish/shrimp boil will take place Sunday, April 3rd.  All proceeds will go to the Wounded Warrior Project, whose vision is to foster the most successful, well-adjusted generation of wounded service members in our nation's history.
 
The day's events will take place during home contests for baseball, softball and men's and women's tennis.  Cost for the Riverside Run is $10 per runner or $25 with an event t-shirt while the crawfish boil will cost $10 per tray and $15 per tray of shrimp.
 
Registration for the Riverside Run, sponsored by 14Graphics, opens at 10:00 am followed by the race at 11:00 am.  Registration will be held at the Hall Activities Center here on the campus of Millsaps.
 
After the 5k race, the crawfish/shrimp boil, sponsored by Gulf Coast Shrimp and Lucky Town Brewery, will take place at Twenty Field behind right field fence.  In all, the day's festivities will be a great opportunity to enjoy Millsaps Athletics while supporting an outstanding cause.
 
"This is a great opportunity for us to give back to a great foundation who supports the greatest warriors the country has to offer," Head Men's Lacrosse Coach John Hoeffler said.  "We couldn't be more proud and honored to be doing this on what should be a great day for an even better cause."
 
Registration for the event can be found here.
