A Big Win at RSDM vs. NJMS Charity Hockey Game

The annual charity hockey game between Rutgers School of Dental Medicine and New Jersey Medical School took place at RWJ Barnabas Health Hockey House in Newark April 22.

“Since our first annual game in 2013, we have raised over $80,000,” said John Gattuso, the event’s head coordinator, and a member of RSDM Class of 2023.

This year, the event generated over $6,000 in support for the Veterans Affairs New Jersey Healthcare System, which includes the East Orange VA Medical Center, Lyons VA Medical Center, and clinics across New Jersey that provide healthcare to veterans.

In the past, the charity game supported various other causes, including Hurricane Sandy victims, pediatric cancer family support/research, and international dental surgery mission trips.

The Rutgers University Air Force ROTC Color Guard presented the flag for the national anthem. Later, RSDM Dean Cecile A. Feldman and NJMS Dean Robert L. Johnson dropped the hockey puck to kick off the game.

RSDM won by 10-2.
