Shooting hoops to fight cancer

Posted

Hoops and hopes were the themes at the 3rd annual For the Love of Sean basketball tournament on Aug. 22 at Baldwin Park. The tournament was organized by Takiesha McBride, sister of Sean McBride, who lost his battle with cancer on Aug. 23, 2012. The event was held to raise awareness of leiomyosarcoma, a smooth muscle cancer that is extremely rare.
