The Shippensburg University athletics department and the Raider basketball teams will be conducting its annual "Play 4 Kay" event on Wed., Feb. 10 from Heiges Field House surrounding its home PSAC Eastern Division doubleheader versus Millersville.

The event will be held in conjunction with the national "Play 4 Kay" initiative of the Kay Yow Cancer Fund — with the purpose of increasing breast cancer awareness and raising funds for research.

The Shippensburg women will play at 6 p.m., with the men to follow at 8 p.m.

All fans are encouraged to wear pink to the games. Those who do will receive free admission!

Multiple campus organizations will be in attendance with information tables and a silent auction will be held featuring numerous items and gift baskets up for bid.

Numerous giveaways, promotions and fan competitions will be conducted throughout the day.

During the men's halftime, fans can make a $1 donation to shoot a three-point shot and potentially win prizes. All donations will go toward the Kay Yow Cancer Fund.

ABOUT PLAY4KAY: The WBCA Pink Zone was rebranded a few years ago as Play4Kay. The mission of the initiative, which was brought to life in 2007, remains intact: a nation of coaches raising breast cancer awareness on the court, across campuses, in communities and beyond. The Kay Yow Cancer Fund is the official charity of the initiative.
