Grayslake Central High School will show its support of October being Breast Cancer Awareness Month with its "Think Pink" varsity football game against Woodstock North at 7:15 p.m. this evening.

"Our goal is to raise awareness throughout the school and our community about breast cancer and inspire people to join in the fight for a cure," said student Haley Little.

Prior to the Rams hitting the field, students will give a presentation about breast cancer awareness, said Little, "so that we can become knowledgeable about prevention and save lives."
