Redhawks leave the Nest Thursday for their annual Pink Out game against Emerson High School at Kuykendall Stadium.

The Pink Out game provides an opportunity for Redhawks to honor and remember loved ones who are fighting or have fought breast cancer. The importance of this game is made especially significant by the fact that October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

At both school Thursday and the game, many Redhawks can be seen wearing pink from head-to-toe as they gather together to honor friends and family impacted by breast cancer.
