About:
Yesterday, the Manhasset Field Hockey team came together for a meaningful cause, hosting their annual Breast Cancer Awareness Game in memory of Ellen Coughlin, wife of PAL Director Frank Coughlin. This special event not only honored Ellen’s legacy but also highlighted the team’s dedication to raising awareness and supporting the fight against breast cancer.
In a touching moment, the team presented a $4,000 check to the Manhasset Women’s Coalition Against Breast Cancer (MWCABC). Co-Presidents and breast cancer survivors Rosanna Migliaccio and Bea Roth were on hand to receive the donation and cheer on the team, offering their support and encouragement throughout the event.
A heartfelt thank you goes out to the 7th, 8th, JV, and Varsity teams for their incredible fundraising efforts. Their dedication made this event a tremendous success, showcasing the strength of the Manhasset community. Together, they continue to make a positive impact in the fight against breast cancer, proving once again that Manhasset is more than just a team—it’s a community of support and compassion.
