This past week Smithtown West hosted their annual "Play 4 The Cure Memorial Game".

This is the 15th year in a row that Smithtown West has held it's field hockey game honoring the memory of St. James Elementary School teacher Sara Long Harte.

Smithtown West dedicates one game per year to Long Harte, who died of breast cancer. Long Harte taught at St. James Elementary School, the same elementary school she attended as a child, for eight years.

The evening isn't just about the game but is filled with tributes and a strong commitment to raising awareness for cancer research.

The event raised $400 for The Sara Long Harte Memorial scholarship fund.
