    Vito DiPietro, Appellant, v Adelphi University, Respondent.
    [650 NYS2d 603]
   In an action to recover damages for personal injuries, the plaintiff appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Nassau County (Kohn, J.), dated December 21, 1995, which granted the defendant’s motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint.

Ordered that the order is affirmed, with costs.

The plaintiff assumed the risk of the injury which he sustained upon voluntarily participating in a basketball game at the defendant’s facility (see, Marescot v St. Augustine’s R. C.
