Women's Basketball accepting donations to the Kay Yow Cancer Fund

North Carolina State's Kay Yow, the Hall of Fame women's basketball coach who won more than 700 games while earning fans with her decades-long fight against breast cancer, died Saturday. In loving memory of former NC State Coach Kay Yow, the Virginia Tech Women’s Basketball Team is accepting donations to help support the Kay Yow Cancer Fund.

The Hokies will be presenting a check to the NC State team this Sunday prior to the start of their 4pm game. Fans are also encouraged to wear pink to the game in honor of Coach Yow and all the success she brought to the world of women’s basketball and the awareness brought to cancer research.

If you would like to donate to this cause, checks can be dropped off or mailed to the Virginia Tech Women’s Basketball Office at 221 Merryman Center, Blacksburg, VA 24061.

The office will also remain open from 5-7pm this Thursday, January 29 prior to the Men’s Basketball game versus Clemson for people to stop by. Call 540-231-4998 with any questions.
