Men's Basketball Kicks Off 'Coaches vs. Cancer 3-Point Attack'

Ohio University men's basketball coach Larry Hunter will kick off the 1999-2000 Coaches vs. Cancer 3-Point Attack campaign on Saturday, Dec. 18. There will be a kickoff press conference at 6:30 p.m. in the Rohr Room of the Convocation Center, followed by a presentation at halftime of the men's basketball game vs. Toledo.

The Coaches vs. Cancer 3-Point Attack unites basketball coaches and fans with local units of the American Cancer Society. The program combines the pledges of Bobcat fans with the number of three-point field goals made by the Bobcat team to raise money for the local chapter of the American Cancer Society. You can participate by completing a pledge card designating how much you will donate per three-point field goal successfully completed. Pledge cards will be available at all remaining Bobcat Basketball games and can be dropped off at the Ohio Athletics Ticket Office. You can complete a pledge card at any time during the basketball season. At the end of the season, Intercollegiate Athletics will announce how many three-point field goals were completed, and you make your donation.

Last season, contributions from the 3-Point Attack raised $7,590.15 to fight cancer. In 1998-99, Ohio Bobcat fans raised the most money among the 12 college basketball teams that participated in the state of Ohio.
