Columbia Burbank hosted River View on Friday for an "orange out" in honor of Abi Hamlin a River View student-athlete, diagnosed with acute myelogenous leukemia in mid-March, and is in remission. Hamlin was released from Seattle Children's Hospital earlier this month and is back at River View on a part-time basis. Though she's out of the hospital, Hamlin still faces a long road to recovery. Friends and strangers -- even students from rival schools -- are pitching in to help her and her family along the way. During Friday night's game in Burbank, fans from both schools participated in an "orange out," wearing orange for leukemia awareness. At halftime, River View and Columbia-Burbank students competed in a spirit chain contest. Links are being sold for $1 each through the schools. The proceeds will help Hamlin's family while they deal with medical expenses. Columbia Burbank won 29-7. PAUL T. ERICKSON/HERALD
