Upstate’s Wellness Initiatives Pay Off

Health and wellness are important factors in the lives of college students, and Upstate University has implemented numerous programs and initiatives to support healthy lifestyles. It has also received several awards for its wellness programs. These include an American Heart Association Gold-Fit Friendly Award, a Workplace Wellness Award from the Central New York Business Journal, and an Elite Corporate Health Champion from the American Diabetes Association.

The Terps had a slow start in the first half, as they shot just nine of 35 field goals and were 0-for-17 from beyond the arc. Upstate took advantage of this, scoring eight straight points to build a 21-14 lead with 6 minutes remaining. The Terps ended a four-game winning streak.
