HOUSTON - The University of Houston women's basketball team will "Think Pink" on Feb. 9 as the Cougars take on SMU at 2 p.m. CST on Guy V. Lewis Court at Hofheinz Pavilion. The Cougars and Mustangs will wear pink warm up shirts in celebration of the day. Cougar fans are encouraged to "Think Pink" by wearing pink to the game in support of the Women's Basketball Coaches Association's campaign to raise awareness for breast cancer. There will be a limited number of shirts on sale at Hofheinz Pavilion along with other auction items. Pink rally towels will also be available for a $1 donation with proceeds going to the Zeta Tau Alpha Foundation. The Women's Basketball Coaches Association's "Think Pink" initiative was started in 2007 to raise breast cancer awareness. Two dollars of every full-price ticket sold for the game will be donated to the Zeta Tau Alpha Foundation. ZTA has partnered with the Susan G. Koman Foundation as its National Philanthropy since 1992. 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. In 2007, more than 120 schools unified for this effort and helped make the inaugural year of "Think Pink" a success. More than 600 women's basketball teams across the country are participating in "Think Pink" week, which takes place Feb. 8-17. "Think Pink" works in conjunction with the Kay Yow/WBCA Cancer Fund, which honors North Carolina State head basketball coach Kay Yow, who is currently battling the disease for the third time.
