Christmas Slam gives away $1000 scholarship

December 1, 2016 by Emily Guajardo

The Students’ Association is hosting the sixth annual Christmas Slam Dec. 3 at the women’s basketball game against Missouri-Kansas City at 2 p.m.

SA will partner with other campus and club organizations to create a family-friendly night to support athletics. Since 2010, Christmas Slam has added cash prizes including a $1000 scholarship and $500 ResLife giveaway.

Abraham Enriquez, political science major from Lubbock and vice president of SA, said the event is intended to bring the student body together with the athletic department and hopes the turnout will reflect that.

“I hope we have a great turnout,” said Enriquez. “This is a great event to wrap up the semester that includes the student body and ACU’s athletes. SA is working towards athletic participation by putting on this event.”

During the game, several prizes will be granted including two iPads, scholarships, giveaways and prizes for a men’s and women’s social club.

The event is free for students.
