Yesterday morning at Carmichael Arena, UNC men’s and women’s basketball, along with the softball, gymnastics, and wrestling teams (apologies for any exclusions, but that’s all I could positively ID during the event) participated in “Dribble for Victory Over Cancer,” a fundraising event benefitting pediatric cancer research.
Hosted by the Pediatric Cancer Research Foundation and the V Foundation for Cancer Research, this event is the latest in a series of mile-long, basketball-dribbling walks across college campuses that began at UCLA. UNC student athletes from a wide variety of sports participated in the event, along with families and fans that were on campus, most of them tired from getting home after midnight following the win over Florida A&M.
