Raina Armbruster showed her reason for walking.

Eight members of the Alpha Chi Omega sorority, along with one UT alumnus, gave up their weekend to walk 72 hours for a cure for breast cancer.

Each team member had to raise a minimum of $2,200 in order to walk, and to date the team has raised $19,488.00 for breast cancer. Tampa Bay as a city raised $4.55 million.
