College students bring much to the Charleston area. And at the end of the school year, they also leave behind a lot. In efforts to help others, students from the College of Charleston and The Citadel who were leaving campus for the summer donated everything from clothing to furniture to school supplies.

Citadel basketball coach Chuck Driesell wrapped up recruiting for the 2013-14 freshman class with the signing of point guard Warren Sledge and center Tom Koopman. Sledge is a 6-3, 180-pounder from Central School in Keller, Texas, and Koopman is a 6-9, 220-pounder from Holland.

The paths of Citadel right fielder Tyler Griffin and South Carolina second baseman Max Schrock converged on April 9 at Carolina Stadium in Columbia. In the third inning of USC’s 6-5 victory, Griffin laid down a sacrifice bunt and raced toward first base. Schrock, the Gamecocks’ freshman second baseman, also sprinted to first to field a throw from USC’s pitcher.
