BY: DANIELLE CLARK, STAFF WRITER WSBU 88.3 FM “The Buzz,” St. Bonaventure University’s student-run radio station, raised $557 for the Breast Cancer Research Foundation during its first annual charity kickball game on Tuesday, Oct. 27, at Joyce Field. The event brought together over 30 players, as well as volunteers and spectators, with the two teams taking the field at 4 p.m. Attendees wore pink in recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and one team took the field dressed entirely in pink. St. Bonaventure students were invited to watch the game, enter a basket raffle and sponsor individual players. All proceeds from the fundraiser went toward breast cancer research. Ryan Addeo, WSBU’s sports director, said the idea developed after the station hosted its annual spring basketball game last year.
