“Mandi’s March” set for November 6

The Yale Club of New Haven, along with the athletic departments of Yale and Quinnipiac, have a special day coming November 6 to benefit Yale women’s player Mandi Schwartz and her family in her two-year battle with leukemia.

When the Yale men’s team hosts Quinnipiac at Ingalls Rink, the day will begin with “Mandi’s March” along 7.5 miles of the Farmington Rails-to-Trail Linear Park between the two schools’ rinks.

The march will begin between 10 a.m. and 11 a.m. at the trailhead opposite the entry drive to Quinnipiac’s TD Bank Sports Center on Sherman Ave. in Hamden. A minimum donation of $15 is suggested.

The Annual Yale Club Hockey Night Dinner then takes place starting at 5:30 p.m. across from Ingalls Rink at Sage-Bowers Hall, 205 Prospect Street. The game begins at 7 p.m.

All proceeds will be presented to Mandi Schwartz and her family.
