The Lombardos' home burned down 2 days after Christmas.
Miraculously, Caden Lombardo found his hockey championship ring in the rubble.

Caroline Ramsey didn't think she was good enough to play field hockey in college.

Hasbrouck Heights won just three games in 2022. A culture shift was needed.
With Gioser Torrealba's arrival, so did a new culture. Now, this underdog team is still undefeated and ready to win titles.
