At each event, the student-athletes will wear special pink tee shirts that will be for sale on campus prior to the events or at each event. The shirts will cost $10 with all proceeds going towards the Susan G. Komen Foundation. Raffle tickets will be sold for a special prize and the winner will be announced at half time. Donations will also be accepted at the entrance and a portion of the ticket and concession sales will be donated to the Susan G. Komen Foundation. At the entrance of each event, pink ribbons buttons will be handed out to all that buy a shirt, make a donation, and/or buy a raffle ticket.
