RedHawks to Wear Special Cancer Awareness Helmets on Saturday
10/22/2025 7:04:00 PM | Football
In a tradition that started back in 2018, the Miami University football team will be carrying a special message with them as they take the field on Saturday, Oct. 25 in Miami's annual Cancer Awareness contest versus Western Michigan at 3:30 p.m. Each player's helmet features a colored ribbon of their choice to symbolize how they have been affected by cancer.
Â
Overall, 30 players selected pink to signify those affected by breast cancer, while 20 chose blue (colon/esophageal/ovarian/cervical/thyroid/prostate cancer). Other colors include: six green (non-Hodgkin's lymphoma/gallbladder/liver, four orange (kidney cancer and leukemia), six yellow (bladder cancer, sarcoma/bone cancer), three black (melanoma), three gray, three red (blood cancers/head and neck), three white (lung/Retinoblastoma/Walden Strom's macroglobulinemia/mesothelioma) and two purple (bladder/pancreatic/testicular). Three players had no preference.
