It was a whiteout at King-Horn Saturday when the men’s basketball team played Capital and those attending opened their wallets and purses to give to cystic fibrosis research.

The appeal for funds hoped to raise about $2,000, bringing the total to near $50,000 since the CF fundraisers began at Northern. The whiteout included white shirts and towels for spectators.

The team was dressed in white except for a touch of orange. Even the polar bear was appropriately dressed in white, but Klondike always is.

The event was held in memory of Angela, an ONU athletic trainer who passed away in 2008, and in honor of Kim Badertscher. Kim is an Ada High School and ONU graduate and former athletic trainer at ONU. She is the daughter of Sharon and the late Dale Badertscher.
