Some players made pancakes to serve at a local senior home and others served Charlotte communities.
“There is some deep-rooted history, being some natives of other cities and their history with other teams,” Panthers guard Austin Corbett said pf the experience.. “It’s fun to go back and forth with who their favorite team is. It’s been awesome.”
In addition to serving in the Charlotte area, players and staff served in Camden, South Carolina and Fort Bragg.
