Welles Crowther was a former Boston College lacrosse player who had a trademark red bandanna.
He was also working in New York on Sept. 11, 2001 when terrorists struck the World Trade Center.
This is the story of how he led people to safety on that fateful day 25 years ago.

ESPN's Mike Farrell produced and directed this amazing piece for our ESPN Triple Header tonight. A brilliant idea and flawless execution. There is nothing like hockey. Find a quiet spot and watch this. Stay present. Stay grateful. Keep doing hard things. Game 1 is here. 🫶🏻❤️

The Man in the Red Bandana
On every 9/11, we remember the heroism and bravery of Welles Crowther.
A lacrosse player at Boston College, Welles had experience as a volunteer firefighter, and gave his life saving as many as 18 people on that fateful day.
