The Mount Aloysius College softball team held their annual Mental Health Awareness Day last week at their games against La Roche University. Junior infielder Whitney Cole organized the event along with the campus Health Services Department. 

“I wanted to raise awareness for mental health after I lost my high school teammate to suicide during my freshman college softball season. She was always everyone’s shoulder to cry on and had a laugh that filled the whole room. It’s important to raise awareness because it’s oftentimes the people who appear always happy who are struggling internally. I want to honor her and try to prevent others from experiencing losing their teammates. Mental health matters and it’s okay to not be okay” said Cole.
