Seton Hall University and WCBS 880 AM — the Yankees Radio Network — are teaming up to support Strikeouts for Scholarships, a program in honor of Ed Lucas '62, longtime baseball reporter and analyst.  Ed Lucas lost his sight shortly after watching Bobby Thompson hit "The shot heard 'round the world" in 1951.

Every time a Yankees pitcher strikes out an opposing batter, $10 will be donated to the Ed Lucas Fund to provide assistance to the hundreds of students currently attending Seton Hall.

About Strikeouts for Scholarships

All donations to Strikeouts for Scholarships go to support students who are currently registered with the office of Disability Support Services (DSS). The mission DSS is to provide students with disabilities equal access to all University programs and activities, while raising campus-wide awareness of issues impacting this student population.

DSS works collaboratively with academic departments and student affairs offices to engage and support the intellectual and social development of students with disabilities. To this end, DSS employs policies and programming to promote academic excellence, the development of self-advocacy skills, and increased student leadership opportunities.

To request disability support services, please contact DSS.
