Who needs Midnight Madness when you’ve got the Red Rally? Come out to Reynolds Coliseum Friday night to help the Wolfpack men and women kick off the 2009-10 basketball season.
Doors open at 6 p.m. The NC State volleyball team takes on Wake Forest at 7 p.m., and basketball starts at 9 p.m. There will be short scrimmages by both teams, a dunk contest, a 3-point contest that will include a fan, giveaways and more. NC State Athletics also will collect donations to benefit the NTAF South Atlantic Spinal Cord Injury Fund in honor of former men’s basketball player Brian Keeter ’03. NC State Web Communications published a story on Keeter this week on ncsu.edu.
And don’t forget, you MUST wear red to get in. Go Pack!
