MORAVIAN TO HOST COACHES VS. CANCER NIGHT

BETHLEHEM, PA --- The Moravian College men's and women's basketball teams will host a Coaches Vs. Cancer night on Wednesday, January 23rd when the Greyhounds take on Susquehanna University in the final game of the first round of the Commonwealth Conference season.  Tip-off of the doubleheader will begin with the women's game at 6:00 p.m. and the men's contest will follow 30 minutes after the women's game in finished.

All proceeds from ticket and program sales, concessions, raffles and the three-point attack will be donated to the American Cancer Society. 

Moravian will be raffling off gift certificates to Starters Pub of Bethlehem, Pott's Doggie Shop of Bethlehem and Papa John's Pizza of the Lehigh Valley.  Moravian will also raffle off four lift tickets to Camelback Ski Resort and a pair of autographed basketballs from the each of the Moravian basketball teams.

The three-point attack takes pledges for each three-pointer made by the Greyhounds during the two games.  Moravian's teams are currently combining for 12 three-pointers a game so a $1 pledge per made three-pointer would be a $12 donation to the American Cancer Society if the Greyhounds hit their averages during the game.  Pledges will be collected through the mail after the game with a note sent by the Moravian basketball staff.
