Remember Kay Yow and support cancer research

On Feb. 22, 2015 NC State will take on Duke at the 10th annual Hoops 4 Hope women’s basketball event in Raleigh to raise awareness and funds for the Kay Yow Cancer Fund. North Carolina’s electric cooperatives are supporting this initiative for the 10th year in a row.
Kay Yow, former NC State women’s basketball coach, was first diagnosed with breast cancer in 1987 and passed away on Jan. 24, 2009. As they say at the Kay Yow Cancer Fund, “Coach Yow did not lose her battle with breast cancer; she simply turned the battle over to each of us.”
