​Sigma Chapter is donating all registration fees to our 2019-2020 Charity of Choice, The Ryan Trefz Memorial Scholarship. Ryan was a junior Risk Management and Insurance student and an active member of the Sigma Chapter who tragically passed away in the summer of 2019. He was also heavily involved in the Temple Ice Hockey Club where he served as Vice President and Co-captain. Ryan leaves behind many friends both in our organization and beyond, and he will be greatly missed by all who knew him.


In his memory, we will be raising funds with a goal of $25,000 to contribute to a Temple scholarship fund in his name. Please help us honor his memory by contributing to our fundraising efforts this year! To find out more about The Ryan Trefz Memorial Scholarship, click here.
