HILLSBORO, Mo. — The Hillsboro and De Soto basketball programs are joining together this winter to raise awareness and support for individuals and families affected by cancer through a series of Pink Out games.
Both the boys and girls basketball teams from each school will take part in this effort, creating four opportunities for fans to show their support and stand united in the fight against cancer.
Game Schedule:
Boys: Jan. 13 at De Soto | Feb. 13 at Hillsboro
Girls: Jan. 22 at Hillsboro | Feb. 12 at De Soto
For the past several years, the Hillsboro boys basketball team has hosted Pink Out games during its home and away matchups with De Soto. The event has grown into a meaningful annual tradition, and this year both the boys and girls programs are expanding the effort to bring even more awareness and community involvement.
