According to John Hansen, Director of Institutional Development for the College, “It was great to have Dr. Travers and her family play in the tournament along with other state elected officials.” Hansen continued, “The tournament would not have been possible without the hard work from our EWC Foundation members, sponsors, competitors, and bidders.”
