JHU Student to Get a $20,000 Shot

BALTIMORE, MD - One current Johns Hopkins University undergraduate will get a chance to make a dent in this year's tuition as the Department of Athletics, the Alumni Association and the Department of Student Life are sponsoring a shot for $20,000 at halftime of the Johns Hopkins-Haverford women's basketball on Saturday, February 7. The Johns Hopkins-Haverford women's basketball game on February 7 is the second game of a men's-women's doubleheader. The women's game should start at approximately 3 pm and the doors to Goldfarb Gym will open at noon.

All Johns Hopkins undergraduates over 18 who attend the men's game at 1 pm and the start of the women's game (and meet all criteria for eligibility - criteria, rules and regulations above as a PDF) will receive a raffle ticket upon presentation of their valid Johns Hopkins University ID and a valid driver's license. One randomly selected student from all entries will be picked with ten (10) minutes remaining in the first half of the women's game. Each eligible student will receive one (1) raffle ticket.

The selected participant, who must be present, will have one shot from a designated spot on the floor to win the $20,000 prize. No warm up shots may be taken and the participant will get just one shot at the prize.

Students are encouraged to arrive early for the men's game and stay for the women's game.
