Two B+ Heroes
B+ Heroes Need Your Support
It will only take a few minutes to stop by their websites and pay them a 'visit'. Shane Higgins and Leon Huhn are both Delaware boys being treated at A.I. DuPont Hospital. Shane was recently diagnosed with ALL and Leon's osteosarcoma recently relapsed. Please send good wishes to these B+ Heroes and their families.

FC Delco Players Cup Honors Andrew
Every Memorial Day weekend, over 700 youth soccer teams from the US and Canada come to Pennsylvania for the FC Delco Players Cup tournament. We are very honored that the tournament organizers honor our son and brother by naming the U-14 Championship trophy "The Andrew McDonough Cup". Andrew was an FC Delco player and being at the complex at USTC in Downingtown, PA yesterday brought back a lot of memories. It's hard being there, but more importantly, we are so incredibly appreciative that they continue to honor Andrew this way.
It was a great championship game yesterday with the Chicago Fire edging Yonkers, NY in overtime. Both groups of boys played extremely well.
