Men's Basketball | January 26, 2016

PHILADELPHIA - The La Salle men's basketball coaching staff will be wearing sneakers with their suits for games at Duquesne and Dayton this week as part of the Coaches vs. Cancer national event to raise awareness for the fight against cancer. 

In addition, the coaches will have specially designed gold Princess Lacey's Laces, to symbolize the fight against pediatric cancer. This campaign honors the memory of eight-year-old basketball fan Lacey Holsworth, who lost her battle to cancer in 2014. As Michigan State University's number one fan, Lacey and her special relationship with player Adreian Payne drew media attention during the 2013-2014 NCAA basketball season.
