Many of the resident advisers and students on the Mantor Hall Council at the University of Nebraska at Kearney have teamed up to organize the Sixth Annual Arm Wrestling Tournament to benefit those with Muscular Dystrophy.
    
These students are determined to make a difference in the lives of those living with Muscular Dystrophy by raising money, according to Kellie Prather, a UNK student from Grand Island.
    
The tournament will be held Wednesday, March 29, at 8 p.m. in the Ponderosa Room of the Nebraskan Student Union. Students and faculty may participate in the event for $5. Each contender will also receive an event t-shirt. General admission for the tournament is $2. T-shirts will be available that night for $7.
