Blue Devils to Raise Awareness for Breast Cancer

The Coginchaug girls' and boys' basketball teams, along with the cheerleading squad, will be wearing pink on Thursday and Friday in support of breast cancer awareness.

 

The Coginchaug girls' and boys' basketball teams will be sporting pink socks when they take the court against Cromwell tonight and Friday night to show their support for local resident Stacie Markoski.

Markowski was recently diagnosed with breast cancer and the teams are hoping to raise awareness in her honor.
