Since 2012 Carilion Clinic physicians and residents have faced off in a spirited basketball game against Medical School students that also raises money to honor the memory of Morgan Harrington. Harrington was a Virginia Tech student interning at the Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine when she was murdered in 2019 after leaving a concert in Charlottesville. The Docs for Morgan fundraising basketball game debuted in 2012, raising money for a medical school scholarship.
The Docs for Morgan basketball game raises funds and pays half the tuition for one Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine student, for all four years. Weather permitting the Docs for Morgan basketball game takes place at Patrick Henry High School tomorrow night at 7; there’s no admission fee but of course contributions to the Morgan Dana Harrington Memorial Scholarship Fund are encouraged.
