Lady Cubs Pink Out For Breast Cancer Awareness

The volleyball season is rapidly coming to an end and basketball season is right around the corner. AS the Lady Cubs battle it out in the post season, they still set aside special games to celebrate or bring awareness to certain causes. The Lady Cubs hosted the Windthorst Lady Trojans for their annual Pink Out game and the Lady Trojans showed up in plenty of pink as well. Pink Out games are hosted during October to help bring awareness to breast cancer by wearing pink shirts, socks, ribbons and numerous clothing options. By keeping breast cancer awareness at the forefront all month long it helps women to schedule those important yearly exams and to pray and give support to those battling breast cancer. The Lady Cubs fell to the Lady Trojans in 3 for the series.

The Olney HIgh School Cubs showed their mettle in their homecoming game at Cub Stadium on Oct. 3 with a 33-0 rout of the Crosbyton Chiefs. Here, OHS Cub Ricco Sandoval (#55) showed he could run as well as guarding the quarterback and making running plays
