Clarion will be hosting Keystone that night in the Fifth annual Hoopes for Hope Fundraiser with the junior high boys team (junior high girls is no longer in season), the boys’ and girls’ junior varsity games (if both teams have enough players to field JV teams) and the boys’ and girls’ varsity games all slated to be played.

Basketball begins at 3:15 p.m. with junior high boys’ basketball action. Then the girls’ and boys’ JV match-ups will begin at 5:00 p.m. The varsity girls will square off at 6:30 p.m. with the varsity boys’ game beginning at 8:00 p.m.

Between the two varsity games, the JV and varsity players will join forces on the court to form a human ribbon honoring cancer survivors.

All cancer survivors attending the event will have free admission. There will be many off-the-court activities such as a chance to win gift baskets, 3-point contests, a full concession stand, and 50/50 games.
