CU head coach Mike MacIntyre accepts the Rod Carew Leadership Award from Be the Match officials at Saturday's spring breakfast.
BOULDER — For the last nine years, Colorado football coach Mike MacIntyre has made the Be the Match Registry a foundational piece of his football teams' community service projects.
Be the Match helps pair bone marrow and stem cell donors with patients who have been stricken with blood cancer and are in need of transplants to save their lives.
In his nine years of involving his teams with Be the Match, MacIntyre's players have been responsible for creating 1,600 entrants in the Be the Match database, and those have resulted in eight matches that have saved lives.
