Western Kentucky's basketball program and Samford are partnering to raise money for the ongoing hurricane relief effort with a “Pack The Pete For Hurricane Relief” game at 1 p.m. Sunday at Pete Hanna Center in Birmingham, Ala.
The NCAA has granted numerous programs waivers to add exhibition games with the proceeds going to relief efforts following a series of devastating hurricanes in the United States, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Proceeds from Sunday’s game will be donated to the Red Cross Hurricane Irma Relief Fund for Florida.
Admission is free for the game, but a $10 donation is being requested from the Samford Athletic Department to help provide relief for Hurricane Irma victims in Florida.
