UCLA women's basketball promoting breast cancer awareness

What's pink and blue and all over ASU?

On Valentine's Day, the UCLA women's basketball team will be taking on the Sun Devils as well as a cause close to their hearts. The Bruins will wear special pink-and-white uniforms (which will be auctioned afterward) to raise awareness about breast cancer. Before the game, all fans are invited to the school's first Carnival for the Cure inside J.D. Morgan Center.

The cause is particularly important for two Bruins. Head Coach Nikki Caldwell started an annual charity motorcycle ride called Cruisin' for a Cause that raises money and awareness for the fight against breast cancer. Junior center Moniquee Alexander lost her mother to breast cancer when she was younger, and filmed a public service announcement to invite people to Saturday's events.

More information about the festivities, which start at 11 a.m., is available on UCLA's website. Caldwell also discussed the "Pink Zone" events on UCLA's YouTube channel:
