Friday, December 21st will be a special night at Grand Blanc High School as the Bobcats take the court against Bay City Western on “Jack Up Cancer Night” in honor of 2018 Grand Blanc graduate and Bobcat basketball alum, Jack Scribner.
A true student-athlete, Jack earned varsity letters for the Bobcats in both basketball and baseball each of the last two seasons, and was a member of the National Honor Society, graduating in the top 3% of his class. He planned on attending Miami University (OH) this semester, but last June, just days after playing in the baseball district championship game for the Bobcats, Jack was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. As a result, plans for college had to be put on hold as he undergoes extensive chemotherapy.
A bone marrow registry drive will be held and there will be a bake sale to support Hurley Pediatrics. And to show our support for Jack in his fight against leukemia, we are encouraging all fans to set aside their Grand Blanc school colors of red & black for one night, and instead wear orange, the color of leukemia awareness. Be there Friday, December 21st as we join together to Jack Up Cancer!
