OCC President Pamela Monaco and OCC Foundation Executive Director Ken Malagiere will be on hand to throw out the ceremonial first pitch

OCC President Pamela Monaco and OCC Foundation Executive Director Ken Malagiere will be on hand to throw out the ceremonial first pitch, and there will be food, games, trivia, and guaranteed fun for the whole community to enjoy.

“I am so excited to demonstrate my total lack of athletic prowess—and I am serious about this,” said Dr. Monaco. “The athletes, the coaches, and the athletic department have been wonderfully supportive of me since becoming president. Every time I go to a game or talk with a student athlete, I am awed by their dedication to a team, to learning, and to competition. It is a tremendous honor to be involved with our baseball team.”

“The OCC Foundation is always at the ready to support our students, athletics and our entire OCC community,” added Malagiere. “We appreciate the opportunity to participate in the day’s festivities! Let’s go, Vikings!”

Activities begin at 12:30 p.m. and game time is 2 p.m. The event is free and open to the public; parking is available in OCC’s Parking Lot 3 next to the H. Hovnanian Sciences Building (#102). In case of rain, the party will be rescheduled to Tuesday, April 2.

Don’t miss out on this celebration of 60 years of high-quality, affordable learning opportunities and community service in Ocean County!
