Women’s basketball squad signs on to anti-racism effort

The Lancer women’s basketball team will dedicate the proceeds of a charity run Sept. 27 to anti-racism efforts and the Black Lives Matter movement.

The virtual 5km run, walk, or bike will support the Sandwich Teen Action Group, which provides programming for west-end youth, and a fund to create an internship position for a BIPOC female hoping to pursue a career in coaching.

The event will run the entire day; participants can plot their own course wherever they feel most comfortable. Organizers are asking for a minimum donation of $20 for registration, and are offering for purchase a T-shirt with a modified basketball logo on the front and the words “Lancers 4 anti-racism” across the back.
