College Basketball Thinks Pink This Week


More than 800 college basketball teams are participating in the annual Women's Basketball Coaches Association "Think Pink" initiative for breast cancer awareness. Players are wearing pink - pink uniforms, pink pre-wrap, pink headbands, even pink shoelaces. Coaches are wearing pink and fans are asked to wear pink t-shirts. Refs are even using pink whistles!

Why not don some pink this week - whether your team is participating or not. Got a game this weekend? Add some pink and show your spirit. Breast cancer affects 12 percent of women, according to the National Cancer Institute. It's certainly hit home in our family.
