PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) - The departments of art and art history and athletics at Providence College have teamed to stage a photography exhibit of the school's student athletes in competition.

The two-month collaboration, known as SPORT:ART, features the work of five students in the Student Sports Photography Exhibition. Three of the students are varsity athletes in cross country and track, lacrosse and field hockey.

The idea for the collaboration originated with Catherine Little Bert, a member of the board of trustees.

The former student athlete in the Class of 1977 owns an art gallery in Providence. She wanted to create what the college calls a "spirited partnership" between art and art history and athletics.

SPORT:ART is also featuring an exhibit called "Out At Home: The Negro Baseball League" and other projects.
