NHPCC was able to put on another successful Awareness event at the NEC Women’s & Men’s Basketball games. Promoting Prostate Cancer Awareness is our mission. If we are able to get a few more men to have their PSA checked annually we consider that a success. In this case if we are able to inform college students, we hope that they will inform the males in their lives about the need for early detection. Our success is measured by the responses at the event, and later when data is collected and reported on the number of men that are being checked, and as prostate cancer deaths decline in our state, across the nation, and the world.
NHPCC wants to extend our gratitude to Athletic Director David DeCew. Women’s coaches Erica Ledy, Erica Girard, Kristen Morrison, & Renee McBride-Rogers. Men’s Coaches Charlie Mason, Shannon Sciria, Joe DeLuca, & Drake Gavin. Of course, the members of the Women’s and Men’s Basketball teams.
