Sun Devil WBB Partners with Washington Elementary School District for Read Across America

TEMPE, Ariz. – For the second time in less than a year, Sun Devil Women's Basketball partnered with the Washington Elementary School District (WESD) in helping promote an initiative to help children learn the importance of reading.

Student-athletes from Sun Devil WBB individually recorded readings of several book titles for this week's Read Across America celebration. The readings were provided to WESD which it included in its Read Across America Guest Reader Library.

"Our student-athletes were delighted to once again work with Washington Elementary School District as we realize the importance of teaching children the benefits of reading at such an early age," ASU head coach Charli Turner Thorne said.
