Spike Out Cancer
Tomorrow's match will be our pink game for Breast Cancer Awareness month. Carolina is also raising awareness and support for the UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center's Adolescent and Young Adult Program (AYA). In the spirit of competition, UNC will compete against Duke to see who can raise the most for our respective AYA cancer programs. The Heels have dedicated their games against Duke, including tomorrow's match, and Nov. 26, 2021, to support the Adolescent and Young Adult Program (AYA).
Every spike made by the Tar Heels during these two games will raise funds for UNC's AYA Program. In addition, you can donate directly to help us beat Duke.

Teenagers and young adults have different needs than other cancer patients. Your cancer treatment affects your education, relationships, career, independence, fertility and more.
