By Danny Gillham

Men’s head coach Neil Dougherty and women's head coach Jeff Mittie will be unveiling their 2002-03 basketball teams to the public at the first-ever Frog Madness Basketball Tip-off Event at 7 p.m. Friday in Daniel-Meyer Coliseum.

As part of the activities, the men’s and women’s basketball teams will participate in skits with the cheerleaders and showgirls. Each team will also have an intrasquad scrimmage. Following the event, players will sign autographs.

The first 500 fans through the doors receive a free T-shirt, hot dog and a drink. Also, the first 1,000 fans receive a chance to win $10,000 in a paper airplane throwing contest. There also will be a student dunk contest, and a student skills competition.
