Pink Zone Begins Saturday

The WBCA Pink Zone Initiative officially begins Friday, and the first America East Pink Zone game in Saturday at Vermont as the Catamounts host Albany. Vermont will have lots of "pink" action, including auctions of the Cats' pink uniforms and a ball autographed by both teams. Visit UVM's Pink Zone site to learn more. Stony Brook plays host to Binghamton on Saturday as well in a rematch of what was a shootout in the teams' first meeting this year.
