The McMaster Marauders raised $3,345 for the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation last week during their Think Pink fundraising and awareness campaign.
The Marauders encouraged fans to make donations, which will be marked in the David Braley Athletic Centre, and sold Think Pink t-shirts and cupcakes, courtesy Cupcakes of Westdale.
The campaign culminated Jan. 12, with the Marauders basketball and volleyball teams in action at Burridge Gym.
The men’s basketball team beat the Western Mustangs 86-62, while the women’s team beat the Mustangs 65-60.
The men’s volleyball team beat the Ryerson Rams 3-2, and the women’s squad fell to the Rams 3-2.
Think Pink t-shirts are still available at the Maroon Shop, and donations continue to be accepted.
