The Castleton University women’s ice hockey program has teamed up with Rutland Regional Medical Center for the 12th annual “Pink the Rink” event to raise awareness and funding for breast cancer research.
The Spartans host New England Hockey Conference foe Suffolk University on Feb. 8 at Spartan Arena. Puck drop is at 3 p.m.
Castleton has raised more than $60,000 since the event’s inception in 2008 and will continue to play its part in the battle against breast cancer this year. Castleton will gear up for the game wearing special collectors-edition pink jerseys, which will be sold in an online auction through Feb. 8. All proceeds from the jersey sales will be donated to The Foley Cancer Center at Rutland Regional Medical Center.
