SAN ANTONIO — The UTSA women’s basketball team recorded an assist of a different kind on Saturday when it spent the day constructing a home with Habitat for Humanity.
The Roadrunners put in a full day’s work of cutting and installing siding, as well as painitng in southwest San Antonio. The team had a chance to meet and work with the home’s future owners on the project.
“This was a great experience for our team,” head coach Rae Rippetoe-Blair said. “A lot of our girls have never done something like this before and it became an amazing team-building experience. It made everyone feel good to help out such a worthy cause and we're happy to continue our support of Habitat for Humanity.”
Habitat for Humanity is a non-profit organization that has built more than 350,000 homes, providing shelter for more than 1.75 million people in nearly 90 countries since its founding in 1976.
