In addition, Hinds Athletics will be decorating the windows of Mayo Field House with ribbons that will include names of those who have gone through Breast Cancer. These ribbons will be moved from the field house to Joe Renfroe Stadium's ticket plaza on gameday. We encourage anyone that wishes to recognize a friend or family member to email
