Story and photos by Monty Siekerman
Pink is the new orange and black.
At least that was Saturday's primary color at Dial-Roberson Stadium as ONU faced John Carroll.
Pink was the color, thanks to efforts by sisters of the ONU chapter of Zeta Tau Alpha sorority.
The sorority pushed the crowd to "Think Pink," in a ZTA effort, locally and on a national level, to raise money for research and education in breast cancer. October is Think Pink month.
The prominent display of pink at the football game was evident among the spectators and cheerleaders.
Monty Siekerman provides the follow photos of the evening:

Once upon a time in Ada
Things you didn’t know about your own hometown

March 3, 1912 the Business Men’s Club was organized. W.C. Ewing was the first president. In 1914 this organization formulated plans for the first Farmers & Merchants Picnic.
The Icon spotted "CHEER 63" in the Ada school parking lot in September. Look for it in a white Chevy Traverse LTE. Does it belong for a former cheerleader born in 1963? That's our best guess.
