DETROIT - The Wayne State University women's hockey team is once again joining the fight against breast cancer as the sixth annual Skate for the Cure weekend approaches, Nov. 19-20 at the City Sports Center as Wayne State hosts Mercyhurst.

Wayne State University junior defenseman and assistant captain Ciara Lee discussed the Skate for the Cure campaign in an Oct. 27 podcast on wsuathletics.com.

The Warriors will be selling t-shirts, pink pucks, cupcakes and ribbons in the days leading up to the annual conference-wide event.  Hockey student-athletes will also be present at Adams Field this coming Saturday as the WSU football team hosts Indianapolis at noon.

Proceeds from the Skate for the Cure campaign will go to benefit the American Cancer Society.
