Miami's Katie Meier Attends Zo's Summer Groove

July 20, 2010

CORAL GABLES – The University of Miami women’s basketball head coach, Katie Meier, joined former NBA All-Star Alonzo Mourning and current Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade at Miami Jackson Senior High School as part of the Nike Basketball Conference Hosted by Gatorade on July 15.

Meier, along with Mourning and Wade held a closed door discussion panel with a select group of current high school student-athletes aimed at giving advice on how to be successful in and around sports.

The Summer Groove Hosted by Zo and D. Wade was a five-day weekend fundraising event that had something for everyone: golf, comedy, concert, benefit dinner, youth summit, youth basketball clinic and sports conference, a free block party, an all-star basketball game and numerous exclusive functions. In its 14th year, The Groove has raised more than $7 million for local South Florida programs and initiatives supported by Alonzo Mourning Charities and Wade’s World Foundation.
