About:
Yorktown Huskers fans, tonight is more than just a big game—it’s an evening where fierce competition meets deep community connection. Our Yorktown Huskers will host Eastchester in Round 1 of the Class A Playoffs, with kickoff set for 6:30 PM. The anticipation for an action-packed match is building, but the real heart of the night lies beyond the scoreboard.
Both teams are coming together for a higher purpose: supporting the family of Arlene Connolly O’Neill. Donations will be collected at the entrance, and every contribution will provide vital support. Additionally, in a touching act of unity, Eastchester Football shared their gratitude on social media, expressing thanks to Yorktown High School and the Huskers community for their generosity.
Both teams will also wear special Green A stickers to honor Arlene’s memory—a beautiful symbol of solidarity and respect. This shared gesture is a testament to the power of sports to bring people together, even in the most challenging times.
Whether you’re cheering in the stands or contributing to this meaningful cause, your presence matters. Let’s make this a night to remember, filled with great football and an even greater sense of community. Together, we are #CommunityStrong.
