The 2024 Pink The Rink jerseys to be worn by the Fredonia State men's hockey team will contain the names of every person, couple, or group ever honored at the annual event. The jerseys were purchased in advance and the buyers have dedicated the jersey and made tribute to a loved one by having that loved one's name printed on the back nameplate. All proceeds will go to benefit the American Cancer Society. The event -- begun in 2008 -- surpassed the $115,000 mark in funds raised last year.
Tickets for this Pink the Rink are $7 for adults, $3 for students, and $2 for Fredonia State students with I.D.
In addition, during the game there will be many drawings, raffles, and other events held to help raise money for the American Cancer Society. The tradition of Pink the Rink began in 2008 and that first year raised $3,800.
The game is also a pivotal one in the conference. The Devils (5-4-0) are currently in fourth place and Oswego is in second (7-2-1) in the SUNYAC standings. Four games remain after Friday's contest, including another home game on Saturday vs. Canton.
