MONT ALTO, Pa. – The Penn State Mont Alto soccer programs will once again be raising awareness and funds for the fight against breast cancer with its annual "Pink Out" games on Saturday, September 28 in a home doubleheader with Penn State Lehigh Valley.

Both programs will be wearing specially designed pink jerseys and fans are encouraged to wear pink in recognition of breast cancer awareness. The teams will also have silent auction tables setup along the hill during both matches where donated items/themed baskets will be available to bid on with all proceeds being donated to the Cumberland Valley Breast Care Alliance (CVBCA). Breast cancer survivors and all survivors of cancer will be honored during a halftime presentation during the women's game at approximately 2 p.m.
