Get in the PINK ZONE


The College at Brockport Women’s Basketball team will host PINK ZONE on Tuesday, February 2nd. The team will wear pink warm-up tops and other pink apparel for its game against SUNY Fredonia at 6 pm at the Tuttle North Gymnasium in Brockport.

All fans are encouraged to wear pink as well and all donations collected will go to the Kay Yow Women’s Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) Cancer Fund.

There will be raffle items sponsored by the Brockport Student Government, Brockport Health Promotions and the Barnes & Noble Bookstore on campus. Students and fans can purchase raffle tickets at the game and can also purchase pink t-shirts and pink carnations to show their support for the breast cancer awareness campaign.

The WBCA works with college teams from across the country to organize Pink Zone events on their campuses to raise money in honor and memory of the former North Carolina State head women’s basketball coach Kay Yow, who passed away in January of 2009 after a long battle with cancer.
