Message from the Cherry Crusade

"I hope everyone is currently basking in the glory of the football team's 5 game winning streak and location on top of the MAC East standings, as we enter the second half of what is shaping up to be a very memorable season. However, for this week we shift gears as it is time for Cherry & White night, the annual introduction of the Men's & Women's basketball teams. This year Cherry & White night happens to fall on Game 1 of the World Series, so Temple Athletics is combining the event with a Game 1 viewing party. So, come out to support the basketball teams, and then stick around to watch the World Series and enjoy free food and prizes throughout the game! Details below:

Bring your friends for an exciting night of Temple Basketball and Philadelphia Phillies World Series action!

Be a part of Temple Basketball Cherry and White Night on Wednesday, Oct. 28 at 7:00 PM at McGonigle Hall. Doors open at 6:00 PM.

At this event, you'll meet the Temple men's and women's basketball teams, and enjoy contests, FREE food, prizes and more. One student will have the chance to win $10,000! If you haven't purchased a Student Wild Cherry Basketball Pass, attending this event is your ONLY opportunity to pick up a FREE student ticket to the Temple-Villanova basketball game on Dec. 13.

Stick around following the event to watch the Philadelphia Phillies as they take on the New York Yankees in game one of the World Series! The viewing party will be held at McGonigle Hall and the game will be shown on a big-screen TV."
