Men’s Hoops Hosts Star Wars Day Saturday

NORMAL, Ill. – The Illinois State men's basketball team welcomes fans for Star Wars Day Saturday versus UT Martin at 2 p.m. on Doug Collins Court at Redbird Arena.

Additionally, everyone is encouraged to bring a new, unwrapped toy for children ages infant-18 years old for the WJBC Brotherhood Tree. All toys are donated to less fortunate families in McLean County. This is the 48th year that WJBC has organized the holiday fundraiser. In 2015, more than 1,600 families in Central Illinois had a better holiday because of the WJBC Brotherhood Tree.

The first 250 fans who donate a toy to the Brotherhood Tree will receive a Star Wars can cooler while supplies last.
