The Torero men's and women's basketball teams will hold Midnight Madness on Friday, Oct. 14 at 8pm in the Jenny Craig Pavilion. The event will be highlighted by giving one lucky student a chance to shoot for free tuition. In addition to contests for the fans, the Toreros will hold a slam dunk competition and a three-point shootout.

The three-point competition will have four women's players and four men's players compete to see who the best long range shooter is. The top scoring female will compete against the top scoring male to declare a winner.

Members of the men's team will showcase their dunking talents in the slam dunk competition, while Coach Holland, Coach Fisher, Executive Director of Athletics Ky Snyder, and the 2005 USD Homecoming King will judge the competition.

In addition, one lucky student winning a chance at free tuition, fans will win t-shirts, food, and other great prizes, and a trip for two to Las Vegas will be given away courtesy of STA Travel.
