About:
The Cazenovia Lakers are set to take on Mohawk Valley in a special ‘Fights Cancer’ awareness game on Monday, February 10th, at 6:45 PM at the Morrisville Iceplex. This game holds deep significance, as it was spearheaded by the Casey family, whose daughter, Iris Casey (Cazenovia HS Class of 2024), is currently battling leukemia. Her younger brother, Jack Casey (Jr.), is a member of the team, and their family has been instrumental in organizing this meaningful event.
Fans are encouraged to wear orange and purple in solidarity, raising awareness and funds for cancer research. This event exemplifies how high school athletics can serve as a powerful force for community engagement, rallying support for important causes beyond the game itself.
Coach Seth Howard and the entire Lakers team are embracing this initiative, proving that sports can be a catalyst for change. Those interested in contributing can learn more and donate through the American Cancer Society’s campaign:
