Susan G. Komen Race For The Cure
For the second year in a row, Baylor athletes have been involved with
the
Central Texas Race for the Cure. The race, featuring over 6,000
runners,
helps raise money for breast cancer research, education, screening and
treatment. A large portion of the money specifically benefits Central
Texans. Head Football Coach Guy Morriss served as the official race
starter
this year, while the Baylor women's basketball NCAA Tournament team did
the
honors for last year's race. The football team volunteers to set up
downtown Waco on the eve of race day, including building scaffolding,
tents,
and a stage. Student-athletes across all Baylor varsity sports
participate
as volunteers on the day of the race, and some even lace up their
sneakers
to run the 5K.
