[slideshow_deploy id=’8251′]

French Field was covered in pink to support breast cancer awareness on Friday, October 17, 2014 during the Fossil Ridge football game against Fairview High School.

It was a close game against Fairview with the end score 40-42, in favor of the visiting team. Fairview made a touchdown in the last quarter to pull ahead 35-42. Fossil Ridge made up for it in the last 30 seconds of the game with a touchdown.

Fossil’s last play was a two point conversion, in hopes for over time, but the attempt was stopped short of the goal line. .

Though Fossil lost the game, it was a success in bringing awareness to breast cancer. Fossil brought awareness by having all the students were pink, including the the band with a pink feather in their plumes. FCCLA (Family career community leaders of america) was selling t-shirts throughout the week before the game.
