Coventry's Silva organizes Injury Fund softball tournament
Needing to complete a ``capstone project’’ as part of her graduation requirements at Coventry High School, junior Erin Silva decided to organize an Injury Fund softball tournament, which will be held tomorrow beginning at 8:30 a.m. with 12 teams participating.
``A lot of kids use the job fair or career shadowing for their project,’’ said Silva, who plays both softball and volleyball at Coventry. ``But I saw this as really benefiting the community. I’ve been playing a lot of years, and I’ve seen a lot of unfortunate things happen. And medical bills can cost so much money.’’
