Hoops Fest Fundraiser to Honor Chris Yung Tuesday Night

Event at Freedom High School raising money for family of officer killed in Manassas wreck.

Prince William County Schools' basketball stars will be competing Tuesday night for a good cause — supporting the family of a fallen Prince William County Police officer.

Hoops Fest 18 is an annual fundraiser spotlighting the top basketball talent in the school division in several individual and team competitions.

Admission is $10, with proceeds supporting the family of officer Chris Yung. Yung died in the line of duty on Dec. 31 in a Manassas car accident.
