About:
On September 11, the Center Moriches volleyball team paid tribute to the lives lost in the 9/11 attacks by holding the American flag before their match. This powerful display of unity and remembrance served as a solemn reminder of the tragic events that forever changed our nation.
By coming together to hold the flag, the team symbolized the strength and resilience of not only the volleyball community but the entire nation. Their gesture reflects a deep respect for those who sacrificed their lives and the heroes who responded in the wake of tragedy.
Moments like this remind us that sports go beyond competition—they offer a platform to honor, reflect, and inspire unity in our communities. The Center Moriches volleyball team’s act of remembrance underscores the importance of never forgetting the significance of September 11, 2001.
As we continue to honor the memory of those affected by 9/11, we are reminded of the power of community, reflection, and respect. Thank you to the Center Moriches team for demonstrating what it means to lead both on and off the court.
