RADFORD, Va. – The holiday season is officially here and the Radford men's basketball program, who is currently on their best start to a season in nearly 35 years, is hosting a special Highlanders Holidays celebration for their clash with Bucknell on Sunday, December 8 inside the Dedmon Center!

The game will feature the annual teddy bear toss, an exclusive Radford ornament giveaway and a pregame photo opportunity with Santa Paws for what is sure to be a special Sunday in the New River City.

To go with the festivities, the product on the floor won't want to be missed as well as the Highlanders sit a 7-2 on the young year, the program's best start to a season since the 1990-91 campaign. The squad is fresh off winning the Sunshine Slam Championship and has picked up victories in three straight games and seven of their last eight contests overall.
 

ANNUAL TEDDY BEAR TOSS
The annual teddy bear toss is back!

Fans and supporters will want to make sure to bring their new stuffed toys to throw onto the court at halftime of Sunday's contest!

All toys that are thrown onto the court will be collected and donated to Carilion Clinic Children's Hospital.

Carilion Children's, located in Roanoke, Virginia, offers the region's only children's hospital providing intensive care, outpatient services and primary care to southwestern Virginia. Their skilled staff of more than 500 medical professionals is specially trained in caring for infants and children.
 

RADFORD ORNAMENT GIVEAWAY
Celebrate the holidays with a one-of-a-kind Radford Athletics ornament! Fans and supporters will want to make sure they arrive to the game early as the first 100 fans will receive a FREE Radford ornament.

The ornament is one-of-a-kind and extremely limited and will only be available at Sunday's contest.

Once the 100 run out, that is it, and the item will not be available again.

The ornament is perfect for your own tree or a stocking stuffer for the Highlander fan in your life!
 

PREGAME WITH SANTA PAWS
The contest will also feature a special pregame photo opportunity with Santa Paws!

Like with the promotion, fans and supporters will want to arrive early to have a chance to take their picture with Santa Paws at the main entrance.

Remember to charge your mobile device so you can snap as many as pictures as possible with our special guest!

Santa Paws is possible through a partnership with Tartan Tails, a wellness program established in 2022 that is designed to promote well-being across the Radford University community through positive interactions with trained and certified animals.
