MONMOUTH, Ore. - Western Oregon head coach Greg Bruce and his lady Wolves squad are now involved with the county's Adopt-A-Road Program.

Traditionally one of Polk County's most successful road cleanliness programs, the Wolves have joined forces with other volunteers to pick up litter and collect it in bags for easy disposal.

Adopt-A-Road volunteers donate two mornings per year.

The Wolves went to work on Saturday, Oct. 6, working on Riddell Road just north of the WOU campus.

"The Adopt-A-Road Program is an ongoing opportunity for our team to get involved in the surrounding community," Bruce said. "We really appreciate the support that has been given to WOU women's basketball, and this is one way that we can say thank you."

On the court, the Wolves began practice on Oct. 15 and will open the season with an exhibition game at the University of Oregon on Nov. 1.
