4/24/2012
Brooklyn, NY - The LIU Brooklyn athletic department, in conjunction with the LIU Black Student Union, hosted the First Annual Ryan T. Lee Memorial 3v3 Basketball Tournament at the Wellness, Recreation and Athletic Center on Monday evening.
A total of eight teams participated in the one-day event and all proceeds from the tournament benefitted the Ryan T. Lee Memorial Foundation. All told, over $400 was raised from the event.
The Ryan T. Lee Memorial Foundation was founded in 2011 as a not-for-profit organization dedicated to remembering the life and legacy of a special young man who was a member of the LIU Brooklyn men's golf team from 2009-11. Inspired by the selfless support of friends and family, the foundation was created as a way to transform a tragic loss into positive change.
