The Charlotte 49ers hosted their 16th annual “Dig Pink” night, this past Friday Oct. 27 in Halton Arena. The aim of Charlotte’s Dig pink campaign is to raise awareness and activism within the local community in an effort to combat the breast cancer. The match itself was a loss in a very tight battle with the Southern Miss Golden Eagles. The Charlotte 49ers falling in three sets.
“I just think for the first time all season, we didn’t come out with the same level of preparation, both teams,” said head coach Karen Weatherington.
Halton arena itself appeared to be an ocean of complete pink, with the match itself drawing out a little over 1,200 spectators, putting it number 11 on the list for Charlotte volleyball’s most attended games.
