Sabers & Cavaliers Unite To 'Strike Out' Cancer

The Souhegan High School and Hollis/Brookline baseball teams will be pitting their skills against cancer tonight.

The teams host their Coaches vs. Cancer night will take place at Holman Stadium in Nashua beginning with the junior varsity teams at 4 p.m. The varsity teams will take the field at 7 p.m.

The ticket admission fee is $1, and luminaria bags will be for sale at $5 each for fans to add to the display around the field. You may purchase your luminaria bags and tickets ahead of time from a member of the Sabers or the Cavaliers baseball teams. 

Proceeds from luminaria bag sales, admission tickets, and a 4th inning “Cap Drill” will benefit the American Cancer Society. 

The event will be held in honor of those who are battling cancer, those who have lost their battle, and all cancer survivors. Coaches vs. Cancer is a collaboration between the American Cancer Society and College and High School Coaches.

The American Cancer Society is dedicated to eliminating cancer as a major health problem by saving lives, diminishing suffering and preventing cancer through research, education, advocacy and service. For more information anytime, call toll free 1-800-ACS-2345 or visit www.cancer.org.
