Arizona: Unis Will Don Patches To Honor Polk



Wildcats To Honor Polk: Arizona men’s and women’s players this season will wear a “00” patch on their uniforms in memory of Arizona women’s player Shawntinice Polk, who died September 26th during a workout due to a blood clot that traveled from her knee to her lungs. Polk entered her senior year as a pre-season Wooden award candidate and first-team all-Pac-10 center. Additionally, the school is selling red, white and blue wristbands that say “Polksey 00”, with all proceeds going to the Shawntinice S. Polk endowment fund. [10/12/05]
