This year, Scarsdale High School students Leah Glucksman, Liza Brecker, Willow Malsch, Jilly Mehlman and Haley Sontag collected boxes of sneakers that day to help their cause, “Dunk Your Kicks” while cheering on Leah’s dad, Adam Glucksman, a 3 year veteran of the 3X3 Tournament. “I got the idea from my Dad”, says Leah. “Seeing him give back in his own way, I was just trying to find mine”. Each pair of sneakers donated reaps $1 to help fight pediatric cancer.
