West Plains, Mo. – For the twelfth year, Lady Zizzer Basketball, with the help of West Plains Bank and Trust Company, will raise funds to benefit local cancer patients through their annual Pink Out game, scheduled for Thursday, Feb. 6, 2025, at West Plains High School. The Lady Zizzers will take on the Donettes of Doniphan, Mo., wit JV action beginning at 5:30 and a varsity contest beginning at approximately 7 p.m. Half of the gate admission will be donated to the cause.

According to Lady Zizzer Coach Christy Otter, the team has been busy pre-selling items in support of the cause and will have help from employees of the main event sponsor, West Plains Bank and Trust Company, on game night to wrap up the fundraiser. “We have two goals that night – add a win against state-ranked Doniphan to our season and beat the 2024 Pink Out fundraising total of $25,000,” Otter said. “The girls are ready,but they need a packed house to get the ‘W’ and raise money.”
