EVANSVILLE, Ind. – Head coach Manolo Concepcion, graduate assistant Melissa Rabell and student-athletes Joselyn Coronel and Mildrelis Rodriguez each have ties to Puerto Rico, which was severely impacted last week by Hurricane Maria.
The hurricane struck the island with winds in excess of 150 miles per hour and has had a devastating effect on the island. Necessities such as food and supplies are in dire need in the island. As a way of helping those who are so close to them, the Purple Aces volleyball team is holding a supply drive to assist those in need in Puerto Rico.
