SAN MARCOS, Texas – September is National Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month and all Sun Belt Conference women's soccer programs will wear specially designed warm-up jerseys in support of Texas State head coach Kat Conner, who was diagnosed with ovarian cancer last year. The Bobcats have designed Friday's conference opener against Little Rock as their cancer awareness game. Kickoff is slated for 7 p.m. at the Bobcat Soccer Complex.
Conner has fought stage three ovarian cancer, undergoing many surgical procedures and seven months of chemotherapy in order to eradicate any remnants of the disease. Thankfully, she is now in remission.
