Westhampton Beach Wrestling Team Raises Money For Live Your Cor Foundation

The group has raised $2,000 through a Pin Pot pledge campaign.

The Westhampton Beach High School varsity wrestling team has raised $2,000 for the Live Your Cor Foundation through a Pin Pot pledge campaign.

The fundraise started earlier this year when one of the athletes said they wanted to do something in memory of former Westhampton Beach wrestler Cory Hubbard, who was struck by a car and passed away in January 2014, according to coach Paul Bass.

The team presented the donation to Hubbard’s parents, who founded the Live Your Cor Foundation, at the wrestling teams’ annual banquet, held on March.
