Donors to Hughes Fieldhouse ensure success for Northwest students

“Before Hughes Fieldhouse opened, the soccer team had to train on the basketball court. Practices are exponentially more productive and are no longer canceled due to inclement weather. The Hughes Fieldhouse also provides us a locker room much closer to our field.”

SCHOLARSHIP RECIPIENT: DANELLE MCMORROW

“Scholarships from Northwest have allowed me to balance my work and classes. This balance has allowed me to focus on career development and relieve some worries regarding financing my education. Without the scholarships, I would not have been able to pursue the opportunities that I have been given.”
