In Crandall, pink is in tonight
10:47 PM CDT on Thursday, October 22, 2009 - Dallas Morning News
Tonight's game between Crandall and Venus at Pirate Stadium will feature a football field painted pink as a tribute to women battling breast cancer.
Crandall's players will also wear pink jerseys, and the staff will wear pink shirts. The Crandall booster club has sold more than 1,700 pink T-shirts with proceeds going toward the Susan G. Komen for the Cure foundation.
"We didn't want to halfway do it," Crandall coach and athletic director Brian Barnett said. "It was a great opportunity to make a statement for our community that there are things much more important than football."
