Think Pink: Tech women to host special event Saturday vs. Jacksonville State
The Tennessee Tech women's basketball team is all set to host its annual "Think Pink" game as part of a doubleheader Saturday against Jacksonville State University in Eblen Center.
COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – The Tennessee Tech women's basketball team is all set to host its annual "Think Pink" game as part of a doubleheader Saturday against Jacksonville State University in Eblen Center. The Golden Eagle women take on the Gamecocks at 5:30 p.m. CT, followed by the men’s game at 7:30 p.m.
The first 1,000 TTU fans into Eblen Center will receive a free, specially designed "Think Pink" t-shirt.
In addition, fans are encouraged to show their support by wearing pink to the game. Tickets are on sale for just one dollar for everyone wearing pink. The arena will feature a variety of embellishments in support of “Think Pink” night including pink graphics on the video board and an updated on-court video prior to the Golden Eagle starting lineups.
"Think Pink" is a phrase derived from the first known use of a pink ribbon in the fall of 1991, when the Susan G. Komen Foundation handed out pink ribbons to participants in its New York City race for breast cancer survivors. The pink ribbon since then has become the international symbol of breast cancer awareness.
Visit or call the Athletics Ticket Office in Eblen Center (931-372-3940) for tickets or additional information. Tickets may also be ordered online at TTUsports.com, but the dollar tickets are only available at the arena on game night.
