2025 Creighton vs. Cancer Pink Out Auction Is Underway

The annual Creighton vs. Cancer Pink Out, presented by Methodist and CHI Health, will take place on January 25th, and this year promises to be bigger and better than ever. For the first time, Creighton will host both Pink Outs on the same day as part of a doubleheader that will see the men's basketball team face Seton Hall at 12:30 p.m., followed by the women's basketball team hosting Connecticut at 4:30 p.m. Both games will take place at CHI Health Center Omaha.

Bluejay players will wear pink shooting shirts and pink-accented jerseys for each game. Fans have the opportunity to honor a friend or family member who has battled cancer or is currently battling cancer by purchasing the apparel via auction (the shooting shirt can be personalized – last name, nickname, etc.). Other items such as signed basketballs, Coach McDermott's game-worn sneakers, golf with each head coach, and more, will be available to bid on. This year's auction is now underway and runs through the evening of Sunday, January 19th, when items will close in 15 minute increments beginning at 6:30 p.m.
