[Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) Feb 20, 2025 [Coker University](https://blogs.coker.edu/news-stories/author/coker-university) Coker University has earned the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Student-Athlete Community Service Award for 2024. Coker won the Division II honors with 92% of the athletes participating in volunteer work with a total of 7,574 hours. "One thing I genuinely enjoy about Coker is the way we engage with the community and serve others," said Kristynn Knight, the university's SAAC president and a women's basketball student-athlete. "Some of my favorite community service experiences have been at the Darlington NASCAR race, opening the door and greeting young students at Butler Academy, and handing out candy during Treats on the Streets! My team and I greatly value community service and enjoy having the opportunity to help. These experiences have shown me the importance of service beyond the court. Community service has made me a better student-athlete by encouraging me to think more about others, and finding ways to serve, even without being asked."
