SALT LAKE CITY—The Utah gymnastics program has launched a #GetWiggyWithUs campaign to raise awareness and funds for its Expand the Dumke Center project. All proceeds from the sale of the wigs, which cost $20, will go toward the Dumke Gymnastics Center expansion fund.
The team asks that fans take photos of themselves in the wigs and share them on social media using #GetWiggyWithUs and #ExpandtheDumke. The wigs will be sold at Red Zone locations on campus, as well as in the Sandy store and at
URedZone.com.
Utah's Feb. 23 meet against defending NCAA champion UCLA will be a "Wig Out" with fans encouraged to wear their red wigs. The meet will start at 1:30 p.m. in the Huntsman Center. Click
