“We have decided to forego our annual Green and White game. Injuries along with our heavy scrimmage schedule are the main factors for our kids’ recovery time,” said Pirates basketball coach Pete Pena. “We want to see all of you at these scrimmages at home.”
Admission to the scrimmage games is $2 for faculty and staff, and free for students with ID and booster club members.
