This fall, thousands of teams from around the country will be participating in the Side-Out Foundation's Dig Pink National Breast Cancer Awareness Rally.

The Tigers will also be selling t-shirts and pink breast cancer awareness ribbons.
All proceeds from all the donations will benefit the Side-Out Foundation. For more information about these events, please contact head coach Shawna Laurendine or assistant coach Krystin Loyd at (931) 598-3361.
