Women's Lacrosse
Worcester, MA- After starting the season on the road, the Worcester State Women’s lacrosse team (1-1, 0-0) hosted its home opener today with a Hair Havoc/Rosen Cancer Awareness Game at Coughlin Field. While spectators were not allowed in the stadium as a result of the recent weather, each team still honored the causes with their game day hair and Pink Rosen T-Shirts to help raise awareness.
The Headstrong Foundation is relentless in improving the quality of life for those affected by cancer. With every action that we take, we are fulfilling the vision of the late Nicholas Colleluori, our founder. Nick’s last wish was that others would benefit from his journey.
The Rosen Cancer Awareness Fund aims to provide a robust curriculum that supports peer-to-peer education regarding early cancer detection. The importance of Raising Awareness in our young people, particularly Worcester State students, has never been more important and can effectively expedite important educational initiatives to curb the prevalence of late-stage cancer detection and increase longevity.
