About:
In a powerful display of support, the North Andover Field Hockey team honored Morgan’s Message during their 2-2 tie against Andover. The game was dedicated to raising awareness about the importance of mental health in athletics, reminding players, coaches, officials, and fans alike of its impact. The players took the field wearing special gear featuring the Morgan’s Message butterfly logo, playing with passion and purpose in a way that honored Morgan’s legacy.
Hannah and Kylie each scored for North Andover, showcasing both their athletic skill and commitment to the cause. Despite the challenging nature of the match, the event was about more than the final score—it was about normalizing conversations around mental health in sports.
This game was a true reflection of teamwork, resilience, and support, both on and off the field, as the North Andover team played for something greater than the game itself.
