The Old Oaken Bucket Of A Different Kind

Last updated on Monday, November 27, 2006

(BLOOMINGTON) - Purdue may own the Old Oaken Bucket again this year, but I.U. can lay claim to a different kind of bucket.

The annual Blood Donor Challenge between the two rivals which awards a replica oaken bucket to the winner went to the Hoosiers this year.

More than 47-hundred units of cream and crimson blood were donated, bettering the donations from West Lafayette by about 800 units.

Overall, a new donation record was set, with almost 86-hundred units given in total.
