WOMEN'S VOLLEYBALL
VOLUNTEERS WITH HABITAT FOR HUMANITY
NAIA Champions of Character
Initiative
PARKVILLE, MO--Head coach Peggy Tuter
and six members of the Park University women's volleyball program
installed insulation, stapled plastic sheeting, and mounted drywall in
their "Champions of Character" effort with Habitat for
Humanity. The volleyball team spent Saturday working with a group of
students from Liberty High School on a home in Gladstone, Mo. It was
the second full-scale volunteer outing for the team this academic
year. In November, Tuter and team members led a coat drive for
Project Warmth. Pictured (left to
