Record sell-out crowd at eighth annual Fast Break Against Cancer
The event raised $150,000 this year, bringing the eight year total to $1.35 million.
Denver Nuggets coach, two-time cancer survivor, and UNC basketball alumnus George Karl was among the guest speakers along with Ted Seagroves, a longtime friend to Williams and a pancreatic cancer patient at UNC, and his surgeon HJ Kim, MD.
A live and silent auction raised approximately $25,000. Auction items included a basketball signed by Coach Williams and the 2012-13 team, the hood of the Quicken Loans 2011 Carrier Classic race car, signed by NASCAR driver Ryan Newman and Coach Williams, an ACC-themed original by Chapel Hill textile artist Elaine O’Neil, a replica of Roy's Hall-of-Fame jersey and more.
