WATERBURY, CT-The Post University men's and women's basketball teams, in conjunction with the Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference (CACC) and the Women's Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA), will hold "Think Pink" Night, on Wednesday, Feb. 13 against Bloomfield College.

The women's game is set for a 6 p.m. tip-off, while the men's game will tip-off at 8 p.m.

Fans wearing pink that night will receive free admission, and member of the Post University Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (S.A.A.C.) will be collecting donations for the American Cancer Society and Breast Cancer Research. In addition, the American Cancer Society in Meriden, Conn. will have information regarding Breast Cancer Awareness.

The Post men's and women's basketball teams will wear special "Think Pink" warm-up shirts, and the coaching staff and Post University athletic department personal will be wearing special pink shirts as well.

The WBCA's "Think Pink" initiative is a global, unified effort for the WBCA's nation of coaches to assist in raising breast cancer awareness on the court, across campuses, in communities, and beyond. Several colleges and universities across the country will hold similar events during the week of February 8-17.

"The WBCA is very excited to promote an initiative that touches all levels of our membership and unified them for such a great cause," WBCA CEO Beth Bass said. "It has been remarkable to watch the support of this initiative grow from 120 schools last year to over 600 for 2008. With the help of each of our members, the women's basketball community can make a difference in the fight against breast cancer."
