EVANSVILLE, Ind. – As a way to honor healthcare workers from the entire Tri-State area for their efforts amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, the University of Evansville Athletic Department announced a special ticket initiative through a partnership with Ascension St. Vincent. This alliance allows for an expression of appreciation during the upcoming 2020-2021 UE men's basketball season.
The Purple Aces are introducing the "FrontlineFive" ticket initiative. For $5, fans can purchase a ticket that will be donated to area healthcare employees and their families. UE Athletics will proudly match every purchased ticket in order to double the donation to those on the front lines who have been working non-stop through the pandemic.
