Chanting “Save the ta-ta’s,” Pine-Richland’s girls varsity field hockey team honored Breast Cancer Awareness Month before it took the field in a contest against the Hempfield Lady Spartans.
The Lady Rams increased awareness and raised money for the event by conducting pledges for each goal scored, holding a 50/50 raffle and bake sales, and selling wristbands and pink T-shirts.
