Service Through Sport: Study Buddies Finishes Another Successful Year

The Gonzaga Hockey program wrapped up its sixth season of Study Buddies last week.

Started in 2012 by former Gonzaga hockey parent Deana Hally and her son, Bobby ’14, Study Buddies is a weekly mentoring and tutoring program that partners players from all three Gonzaga hockey teams with students from Cornerstone School in Southeast DC.

Once a week during hockey season, students from Gonzaga and Cornerstone, which serves children in grades K-12, spend time doing homework, playing games, and having snacks together at Fort Dupont Ice Arena.

After winning both divisions of the MAPHL, the Gonzaga players brought their championship trophies to the final Study Buddies session of the 2018 season. We hope you enjoy these great photos!
