A tradition started a year ago, the Lady Spartans and their fans will play up the color pink to raise cancer awareness when they host Par- adise on Feb. 7. The school is seek- ing donations to help cover the costs of obtaining pink jerseys the players can wear during the evening. The uniforms will remain in the athletic program for future teams to use in Pink Out events. The total cost of the jerseys are $1,000 and anyone interested in helping donate to help the school obtain them is asked to con- tact athletic director Rich Hassay at Red Bluff Union High School at 529-8700. This year's event will include a raffle, with all proceeds being donated to a local cancer entity, information booths in the gym lobby and a concession stand filled with "Pink Treats." One of the raffle items will be a hand- made pink quilt donated by the grandmother, Darlene Harrick, of one of the freshman team play- ers, Jami Matheson. The players wish to thank the entire com- munity for their sup- port in starting this new tradition and look forward to see- ing everyone in pink on Feb. 7.

Mootz finished with 18 points and Ovitz had 14 for Chico. Brose, returning to the court for the first time in more than a calendar year, finished with 16 points. As a freshman, Brose was among the nation's top scorers in her grade class before her season was cut short due to a knee injury. She reinjured her knee in December of her sopho- more season and sat out the first few months of her new junior campaign. "I was always looking to this ever since Day 1," Brose said of her mindset through her recovery peri- od. The Lady Spartans fell to 5-5 on the season with the loss. Ashley Brown grabbed nine rebounds for Red Bluff. Cori Schatz had six points. Jessica Macdonald finished with four points and Lottie Jones had three. Alana Hinkston and Rachel Ward each added a basket. Daily News photo by Rich Greene Red Bluff point guard Lily Brose brings the ball up court,Tuesday night, against Chico.

I think DeMarcus has to continue to show matu- rity and a desire to go the same direction as his teammates. We're all hop- ing that happens.'' .
