ORLANDO, Fla. (UCFAthletics.com) - In the spirit of giving this holiday season, the UCF basketball programs are working in collaboration with Allstate Insurance and the on-campus food bank Knights Pantry by hosting a food drive.
Black and Gold fans who bring non-perishable food items to UCF Arena for either the women's game Dec. 19 or the men's game Dec. 20 will enjoy free admission to the respective matchup.
The women will host South Alabama at 7 p.m. prior to the men's game the next day against Stetson at 7 p.m.
In addition, Allstate has committed to a weigh-in challenge. If the total weight of the food collected exceeds the total weight of the men's basketball roster (2,755 pounds), Allstate has generously committed to donating $2,500 to Knights Pantry and $2,500 to the Golden Knights Club.
