The 2023 Lyon College Furry Frenzy Toy Toss, which benefits the United Way’s Angel Tree program, putting Christmas gifts in the hands of children less fortunate, has been set for Thursday at Becknell Gymnasium during the Lyon College men’s basketball game.
Fans will gain entrance to the game for free if they bring a new stuffed toy to toss when the Lyon men’s team scores its first points of the game — that’s when the fur will fly.
Lyon College’s Savannah Lee recently visited with Arkansas 103.3 KWOZ’s Wes Gwaltney about this year’s big event. Listen to their conversation below.
The Scots will welcome Hendrix College on Thursday. Tip-offs for the women’s and men’s games will be 5:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m., respectively.
