New Mexico State football team will wear pink for breast cancer research

LAS CRUCES N.M.

To most fans, college football is a black-and-blue sport. At New Mexico State, it’s time to think pink.

 

The Aggies will wear pink socks and their coaches will wear pink golf shirts for a Sept. 29 game against Arkansas-Pine Bluff in a push to raise money for breast cancer research, a cause close to coach Hal Mumme’s heart.

 

His wife, June, was diagnosed in late 1996. She began chemotherapy treatments a few months later right after Mumme was hired as Kentucky’s coach.
