When the teams started their
walk around the gym at Lincoln College Friday night, there was a mix
of emotions throughout the room.
Every person there was in the room for their own personal reason,
yet they were all also there for one common reason: to do what they
were able to do to help fight a disease that takes the lives of
young and old, male and female, without discrimination.
