Norwood Hockey lost a legend this week. Mr. Bob Clifford was a proud NHS Mustang and went on to continue his hockey career at Brown University. He came back to NHS where he was a beloved history teacher. His father, Tom, was the founder of Norwood Nuggets. RIP Mr. Clifford💕
Thanks to everyone who stopped by Honeydew today on such a cold day to make a donation for AJ Quetta. Not including the checks,Venmo donations, and Honeydew’s donation...the boys raised 3054 in their cans alone. It takes a village.💙💛💚

One more sleep until the first game! The varsity team had their first pasta dinner tonight. The video meant to get the boys fired up wasn’t nearly as meaningful as the hearfelt words from the legend himself,

The boys lose in a hard fought heartbreaker to Hopkinton 5-3. Down 3-1 they battled their asses off to come back and tie the game, Hopkinton scored with 1:20 left in the 3rd to take the lead and added an empty netter. Proud of the boys for not giving up, battling until the end!

It’s hard to believe that it’s been 10 years since my accident. Last night I really started to reflect on everything. So much so that I thought it would be smart to get these thoughts on to paper. Here’s what I got.
It takes a village…and the hockey team was so grateful for our community donors! We want to give a huge thank you to Rich and Karen Broderick of Broderick Gymnastics Academy for donating $1,000 to our program! 💙💛
