Dribble for the Cure

I just came back from Dribble for the Cure, an event someone posted here a few weeks ago.  It was a great event.  I had the chance to meet all the players and get autographs.  Ben Howland introduced the team, talked about training, and injury updates.  He didn't mention much that we haven't already discussed here on BN, but it was a nice recap nonetheless. 

J'mison Morgan is a great kid.  Some of the other players seemed a little bored signing autographs (understandably), but Bobo was just having fun with it.  He's so full of life and CBH says he's developing at a very fast pace.

Importantly, it was for a really great cause: raising money for pediatric cancer research.  USC has been sponsoring this event for three years now, and guess what... in UCLA's first year, we quadrupled the amount of money raised by USC.  Now, I won't knock the trojies here because I think it's great that they've been participating in this cause for a few years now, but I point it out to show what a big impact we can have in just our first year.  This is great and I will definitely be doing this again next year!

 

This is a FanPost and does not necessarily reflect the views of BruinsNation's (BN) editors. It does reflect the views of this particular fan though, which is as important as the views of BN's editors.

yep

I have only a few pictures but like trbruin, I didn’t know how to post them. I will email them to you. Unfortunately, my digicam is pretty old so the quality isn’t great.

Yes! I had posted it a bit back.

I am glad you were able to go.
Unfortunately my AP Chemistry teacher decided to mandate a sunday class session so I was unable to attend, but I did raise some funds!

I hope there is something in the paper about it tomorrow.
