Smithtown West dedicates one game per year to Long Harte, who died of breast cancer. Long Harte taught at St. James Elementary School, the same elementary school she attended as a child, for eight years.
The evening isn't just about the game but is filled with tributes and a strong commitment to raising awareness for cancer research.
The event raised $400 for The Sara Long Harte Memorial scholarship fund.
