“I love boobies.” Those are words that are seen often on the wrists of the students here at Albert Lea High School.
But the student body here may be unaware of these girls’ passion. They play for boobies.
The girls’ tennis team here at Albert Lea High School decided to play a match that was devoted to breast cancer.
The team had played with pink tennis balls for that match, wore tie dyed pink outfits designed especially for breast cancer and of course had made cookies with pink ribbons on them.
“I feel as if it brought us closer as a team, we were all having fun while doing it.” said sophomore tennis player Erin Murtaugh, whose mother died of breast cancer.
Murtaugh is one of the girls who had the idea to start this whole thing, fellow sophomore tennis player Claire Ellis was the other.
Both girls had came up with this idea after both of their mothers had been diagnosed with breast cancer and wanted to raise the awareness of the subject.
“We were very pleased with how passionate everyone was about the whole thing.” said Murtaugh.
The whole idea of this had never been used in the past, but they do believe it will happen again in the future and other teams such as swimming have used this idea now as well.
“I am excited to see if we will do this again next year.” said Murtaugh with a smirk.
The team has not been the only ones happy about this idea, the coaches, captains, along with the fans have also been pleased with the girls showing their support for breast cancer.
“Everyone was smiling during the match and we all made better friendships.” said senior captain Michelle Hartmann.
Not only were they smiling, but the team had felt they played better than usual during this match.
The team had done a significantly well job at playing during that game.
“I feel we were all more motivated during this match, that’s why we played better.” said Murtaugh.
This whole situation may have only lasted for one match against Winona, but it brought better friendships, motivations for playing a great match and gave the awareness about the seriousness of breast cancer.
Be sure to spread the awareness to others everywhere.
“I think everyone needs to know its seriousness.” said Murtaugh.
