Hockey Game Results
|
JASM colleagues came from afar to volunteer their time and energy to help support scholarships. Two teams (JASM West and JASM East) faced off last night in a test of skill and scientific passion with JASM East prevailing in a 9-7 victory following a tied game early in the third period. The players, spectators, and sponsors (Yokogawa FlowCam, WRS, and Green Eyes) raised over $2,000: JASM societies will share $1,367 to support student scholarships. Thank you!
