(Lawrenceburg, Ind.) – Two Eastern Indiana Athletic Conference basketball teams will come together this month for cancer awareness.

The Lawrenceburg Lady Tigers will host Rushville for their annual “pink” game, called Hooping for Hope on Saturday, December 17.

The junior varsity game will start at noon, followed by tipoff of the varsity contest at 1:30.

The organization supports individuals statewide receiving treatment for breast cancer by relieving emotional, physical, and financial burdens.

Some of the items available include:

  • Mike Woodson autographed Adidas basketball
  • Signed basketball by each team
  • Framed pictures of each team
  • Gifts from the Bengals, LHS athletics and more
