UW men’s basketball to play at Nevada in exhibition benefiting wildfire relief fund

The Washington men’s basketball team will play at Nevada in an exhibition to benefit California wildfire victims.

The game is set for 3 p.m. Oct. 21 at Lawlor Events Center. Tickets prices are $15 for adults and $10 for seniors and children eighth grade and younger.

The proceeds will be donated to the Northern California Wildfire Relief fund through the California Community Foundation and specifically directed to the victims of the Carr Fire this summer in Northern California.

“We’re excited about the opportunity to raise money for such a worthy cause,” coach Mike Hopkins said in a statement released by the team.
