Some NCAA teams will wear pink jerseys and warmups to promote breast cancer awareness in a set of games next month.

According to ESPN.com, NC State, Rutgers, LSU and Georgia are expected to don the hue on Sunday, Feb. 10 as ESPN prepares its tournament coverage with a dry run.

Fans will be encouraged to donate to the Kay Yow Fund, named after NC State’s head coach, who was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1987 and was informed recently that she had stage four cancer.

All the efforts are part of the Jimmy V Foundation.
