Longwood Soccer Kicks Cancer

This past week, the Longwood girls' junior varsity soccer team dedicated their game to "Kicks for a Cure."

The Kicks for a Cure raises funds for women's cancer research. Besides wearing pink and showing everyone their support to fight cancer, each player raised donations to give to the foundation.

Since 2007, Kicks for a Cure has brought the community together to raise awareness and funds to support women's cancer research, with a particular focus on early detection of ovarian cancer.

Over the years, the event has grown to include participation by several other sports beyond soccer.
