An estimated 1,500 people from the TCU community and around the Fort Worth-Dallas area, including 200 breast cancer survivors wearing fuzzy pink headgear, danced in the Campus Commons to Tim Halperin’s hit song “We Fight Back,” which he and producer Brian Kieta ’95 penned for the 2010 cause.

0The video will be featured at halftime of the TCU-BYU football game on Oct. 28 in Cowboys Stadium as part of the university’s annual Frogs For The Cure effort. This is the seventh season TCU has partnered with Susan G. Komen for the Cure on raising money and attention for breast cancer treatment. TCU was the first university to combine a Komen event and football game.

0While the 106-degree temperature was stifling, it did little to suppress the enthusiasm of the group, which included student-athletes from men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s tennis and rifle teams, plus members of ROTC, the TCU Marching Band, TCU Cheerleaders, TCU Showgirls and numerous fraternities and sororities.
