RALEIGH, N.C. - The NC State women's soccer team is hosting a Kick for the Cure breast cancer awareness event on Sunday, October 10 when the Wolfpack host Maryland at Dail Soccer Field at 1 p.m.
NC State will be wearing pink jerseys in honor of the fight against breast cancer. During the first half a silent auction will be conducted as fans will be able to bid on the jerseys worn during the match.
