Physicians win Docs vs. Nurses softball game


The physicians' team at CoxHealth was victorious in the second annual Doctors vs. Nurses softball game held Sunday night at Killian Softball Complex in Springfield.

The doctors won by a score of 7-5, making next year's game a tie-breaker in the series.

The annual community event raises money for the Nursing Practice & Excellence Fund managed by the CoxHealth Foundation. The fund assists nurses with professional growth activities that are not covered by tuition reimbursement (such as conferences, reference books, journal subscriptions, etc). When the Fund reaches $10,000.00, plans include awarding scholarships for nursing.
