pinking up the gaMe football 101
throwing like a girl is fun stuff. Just ask the more than
300 women—including breast cancer survivors, player's
moms and team fans, including brava publisher michelle
reddington—who hit the camp randall turf with badger
football coach gary andersen for football 101. the ladies
peeked behind the scenes at the stadium, got their game
on and learned what it's like to play for the badgers.
football 101 raised more than $15,000 for the susan g.
Komen south central wisconsin affiliate: 75 percent of the
funds will help local uninsured women access treatments;
25 percent goes to breast cancer research.
