St. Philip’s 大学 Honored by Spurs during Black Heritage Night

圣安东尼奥 Spurs celebrated Black Heritage Night at the AT&2月T中心. 3 during the game against the Philadelphia 76ers.

The pre-game showcase in the HEB Fan Zone included local talents: poets Andrea “Vocab” Sanderson, and KENS 5’s Clarke Finney. SPC cheerleaders Marq Vaughn and Jasmine Amerson performed a dance routine.

During the first time out, Dr. Adena Williams Loston, President of St. Philip’s 大学; Dr. Lawrence Scott, 社区 Leader and Professor of Educational 领导 at Texas A&M University -- 圣安东尼奥; and David Robinson Jr., community leader and advocate were honored with team jerseys.

At halftime, the Spurs presented St. Philip’s 大学 with a check for $10,000 to support its mission to educate and empower students of color. St. Philip’s 大学 has the unique distinction of being the only public college in the nation designated as both a Historically Black 大学 & University (HBCU) and Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI).
